The nation’s most advanced statewide network for education and research – OSCnet – now provides many Ohio college and university students access to an online service that allows downloading of millions of songs and videos legally and for free.
Clyde B. Bratton, a retired Cleveland State University physics professor whose doctoral research contributed to the development of MRI equipment, died of a heart attack Tuesday at his son's home in Willoughby.
The 77-year-old Euclid resident taught at CSU from 1967 until retiring in 2002.
As a doctoral student at Western Reserve University in 1964, Bratton did nuclear magnetic resonance studies on living muscle.
A proposal led by Ohio University and powered by the resources of the Ohio Supercomputer Center and the Ralph Regula School of Computational Science is aimed at positioning the state as a national leader in the emerging field of bioinformatics.
The Ohio Supercomputer Center's K-12 summer education programs — Summer Academy, Young Women's Summer Institute (YWSI) and Summer Institute (SI) — are now accepting applications for 2008.
Summer Academy in Computational Science and EngineeringNew in 2008, the Summer Academy in Computational Science and Engineering is for high school students and teachers interested in learning how to use modeling and simulation in engineering design.
The proliferation of widely accessible graphical processing units is changing the landscape of supercomputing, offering researchers multiple benefits — and a few challenges, according to Wen-mei Hwu, Ph.D., who recently presented “The Future of Scalable Computing with GPU Computing” as an invited guest for the Ohio Supercomputer Center’s Computational Science Lecture Series.
A Summer Academy in Computational Science and Engineering will teach sophisticated computer modeling and simulation skills to 40 Ohio high school students and ten teachers, thanks to a grant announced today by the Ohio Board of Regents.
Spring Break means warmer weather and the allure of sunny beaches. But while sun-loving students head out to beaches every spring to enjoy sand and surf, ultraviolet rays could be damaging their skin’s genetic code and causing skin cancer, the most widespread cancer in North America.
Future generations of spring beach-goers will be pleased to know that Ohio State University scientists are making progress towards understanding why certain DNA sites are much more susceptible to UV damage than others.
Without ever leaving the nursery, fragile babies born at Chillicothe’s Adena Regional Medical Center are receiving clinical assessments from specialists an hour away at Nationwide Children’s Hospital — thanks to high-definition videoconferencing capabilities made possible via the Ohio Supercomputer Center.
With the deployment of the Ohio Supercomputer Center’s new IBM Cluster 1350, the State of Ohio is now home to the 65th fastest supercomputer in the world and the 9th fastest among U.S. academic supercomputer centers.
The Ohio Supercomputer Center Statewide Users Group and the Ralph Regula School of Computational Science present Wen-mei Hwu, Ph.D. as the next speaker for the Ohio Computational Science Lecture Series.
