Welcome to the Center for Scalable Data and Computational Science (ScaleS)
Computing and data science are considered as the third and fourth pillars of scientific study. Many data and computational science related studies generate data in high volume/velocity and require advanced computing environments including high-performance computing, cloud computing and edge computing. This center focuses on emerging scalable architectures and algorithms that can utilize such computing environments for big data generated from different science disciplines (e.g., Earth, manufacturing and medicine), and interdisciplinary research on how such data and computational science advances can help scientific applications. The center will connect faculty who work on scalable data/computing techniques with faculty who work on related scientific applications. It will form interdisciplinary teams, conduct research with greater impacts and pursue related funding opportunities. The center will also collaborate with centers including UMBC Center for AI, iHARP, CARTA and CARDS for joint activities and research.
