The National Science Foundation (NSF) issued a new solicitation for the Exploiting Parallelism and Scalability (XPS) program. The Computing Community Consortium (CCC) 2012 White Paper “21st Century Computer Architecture” was a key driver for the development of this program. The Exploiting Parallelism and Scalability (XPS) program aims to support groundbreaking research leading to a new era of parallel computing. Achieving the needed breakthroughs will require a collaborative effort among researchers representing all areas — from services and applications down to the micro-architecture — and will be built on new concepts, theories, and foundational principles. New approaches to achieve scalable performance and usability need new abstract models and algorithms, new programming models and […]
Computing Community Consortium Blog
The goal of the Computing Community Consortium (CCC) is to catalyze the computing research community to debate longer range, more audacious research challenges; to build consensus around research visions; to evolve the most promising visions toward clearly defined initiatives; and to work with the funding organizations to move challenges and visions toward funding initiatives. The purpose of this blog is to provide a more immediate, online mechanism for dissemination of visioning concepts and community discussion/debate about them.

Exploiting Parallelism and Scalability Deadline Approaching
January 6th, 2015 / in NSF, Research News, resources / by Helen WrightPostdoctoral Fellowships in Data Curation for the Sciences and Social Sciences
January 6th, 2015 / in Announcements, Research News / by Helen WrightThe Council on Library and Information Resources (CLIR) is seeking applicants for Postdoctoral Fellowships in Data Curation for the Sciences and Social Sciences. The Data Curation Fellowships will provide recent Ph.D.s with professional development, education, and training opportunities in data curation for the sciences and social sciences. Through these fellowships, CLIR seeks to raise awareness and build capacity for sound data management practice throughout the academy. Each fellowship is a two-year appointment, with a commensurate salary, plus benefits, and yearly travel and research stipends. Eligible applicants must have received a PhD after January 1, 2010 but before beginning the fellowship and be legally permitted to work in the US and/or Canada […]
