Summer Student Internship working on the GPU

This summer internship consisted of learning computer programming skills and languages including Thrust, CUDA, C++, C and Linux. The application of this programming is for use in GPU, graphics processing units, that are processors that perform math intensive calculations rapidly in three dimensions typically in advanced video games (“NVIDIA GeForce…”). Our goal is to apply this technology towards exa-scale computing on the LANL supercomputing infrastructure. My mentors use these machines to do computations. The completed algorithms include KD tree and Top K. In order to access the GPU, CUDA was used. CUDA is a parallel computer architecture for general computing on the GPUs. There are different means by which to access CUDA. The first approach uses libraries, like Thrust, Linear Algebra, and Signal and Image Processing. Another approach parallelizes loops in Fortran or C and in the last approach people develop custom parallel algorithms using familiar language (“What is CUDA”). The algorithms I worked on this summer use the first approach of using the thrust library of parallel algorithms and data structures.

Student Travel to Pan-Am Congress of Plants & Biofuels in Merida, Mexico

The Pan American Congress on Plants and BioEnergy convened in Mérida, Mexico, June 22 to 25, 2008. The program was organized by Steve Long (University of Illinois) and Nick Carpita (Purdue University), along with co-organizers Marcos Buckeridge (University of São Paulo, Brazil) and Federico Sánchez (Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México). More than 200 scientists from over a dozen nations around the world gathered to discuss key issues surrounding the development of biofuel feedstocks and to report on their research in this area. This three day conference had invited speakers surrounding developing renewable and sustainable energy resources which are typically propelled by three important drivers – security, cost and environmental impact.

Training Graduate and Undergraduate Students in Simulation and Risk Assessment for Carbon Sequestration

Capturing carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) and injecting it into deep underground formations for storage (carbon capture and underground storage, or CCUS) is one way of reducing anthropogenic CO 2 emissions. Gas or aqueous-phase leakage may occur due to transport via faults and fractures, through faulty well bores, or through leaky confining materials. Contaminants of concern include aqueous salts and dissolved solids, gaseous or aqueous-phase organic contaminants, and acidic gas or aqueous-phase fluids that can liberate metals from aquifer minerals. Understanding the mechanisms and parameters that can contribute to leakage of the CO 2 and the ultimate impact on shallow water aquifers that overlie injection formations is an important step in evaluating the efficacy and risks associated with long-term CO 2 storage.

DOE Theory Graduate Student Fellowship: Gustavo Marques Tavares

Marques Tavares was awarded a fellowship for his proposal “The ttbar asymmetry and beyond” to starting in September 2012. This is the final report summarizing the research activities and accomplishments achieved with this grant support. With support from the DOE graduate fellowship Marques Tavares, Katz and Xu at BU have investigated a new technique for obtaining quantitative results in strongly coupled field theories with broken conformal invariance. Such theories are especially interesting as they may be candidates for physics beyond the standard model with possible applications to strongly coupled electroweak symmetry breaking. However, because of the strong coupling even qualitative results about the spectrum of such theories are not rigorously understood.
