Computational Sciences Section      Archival page 2002

The Computational Sciences Section performs research in computer science, mathematics, and statistics germane to the solution of problems of national importance; and collaborates and consults with other scientists and engineers on such problems with particular attention to technologies related to advanced large-scale parallel computing and heterogeneous distributed computing.

Groups

	Collaborative Technologies-- Tom Potok develops advanced collaborative technologies and other related technologies to support interdisciplinary researchers and decision makers in areas of importance to DOE
	Computational Condensed Matter Physics-- Bill Shelton pursues development and use of computational models to simulate complex physical systems in order to identify and correct process and/or operational problems
	Computational Climate Dynamics-- John B. Drake conducts research in global and regional climate systems, developing and coupling computational models, data systems, and visualization across a distributed computational grid
	Computational Materials Sciences-- Srdan Simunovic pursues development and use of materials processing modeling, high-performance computing, and computational techniques to expand the quantitative understanding of advanced materials and processing technologies, such as, heat flow and fluid flow in weldments, prediction of porosity and mechanical properties of cast materials, and modeling and analyzing car crashes
	Computational Mathematics-- Chuck Romine is devoted to the development and analysis of basic techniques and efficient numerical algorithms for solving large-scale scientific and engineering problems on advanced computer architectures.
	Statistics and Data Sciences--Chuck Bayne conducts research in collaboration with other scientists in areas including biostatistics, computational statistics, optimal design of experiments, and large data sets; also provides statistical consultation and computing services to support project planning, facilitate project implementation, and maximize project return.
	Visualization-- Brian Worley (acting) provides research and consulting for applications requiring data mining and scientific visualization
