The US Army High Performance Computing Research Center (AHPCRC) provides nationwide leadership in high performance computing (HPC) research. Its supercomputing resources are maintained and operated by the Minnesota Supercomputer Center, Inc. AHPCRC researchers are developing novel techniques and advanced algorithms and applying them to physical problems, as well as evaluating and using advanced computing platforms for HPC applications. The Center trains future scientists and engineers by sponsoring computer science educational research at the undergraduate, MS, PhD, and postdoctoral levels. It provides a framework for HPC technology transfer and infrastructure support to Army laboratories by conducting joint research projects between Army scientists and Center researchers; by jointly supervising the staff scientists placed by the Center at the Army laboratories; and by encouraging visits between Army scientists and Center researchers. Finally, the AHPCRC provides a state-of-the-art HPC environment to its academic partners, to Army and Defense Department scientists, and to industrial and international collaborators.>
