High-Performance Computing

Associated faculty: Richard Brower, Roscoe Giles

The use of high-performance parallel computers to solve problems in physics, materials science, and engineering systems is pursued by a number of ECE faculty using the resources of the BU Center for Computational Science. Richard Brower works on molecular dynamics simulation for biomolecules, lattice methods for statistical mechanics and quantum field theory of strings and particles. Roscoe Giles’ research developed algorithms for large-scale micromagnetic modeling and molecular dynamic simulation.
