A preliminary draft of the scalable applications to be leveraged, augmented, mapped, and evaluated by academic research teams for achievement and showcase on Novo-G in 2010 is currently in development (12/22/09).
Boston University: Bioinformatics (BLAST); computational biology (molecular dynamics, docking)
Clemson University: Classical (LAMMPS, AMBER, NAMD) and quantum modular dynamics
University of Florida - CHREC: Bio (Smith-Waterman, Needleman-Wunsch, and proteomic isoformics); DSP (backprojection or ITL)
George Washington University - CHREC: Remote sensing (dimension reduction for hyperspectral imagery and/or automatic cloud-cover assessment algorithm); image processing apps and kernels
University of Glasgow: Information retrieval, high-efficiency document filtering
Imperial College: Dense and band-structured iterative solvers for both positive definite & indefinite symmetric linear systems (initial focus on numerical optimization tasks, later on optimization solvers); vector machine (machine learning); Monte Carlo (finance)
Northeastern University: PHAST = Pipelined Hardware-Accelerated STate Checker (model-checking accelerator based on Murphi verifier from Stanford; features state-space exploration; applicable to many related problems with millions of states); fast FP division, square root, and 1/x integrated with soft-core processors
Federal University of Pernambuco: Seismic processing (2D and 3D modeling and migration)
University of South Carolina: Phylogeny reconstruction including GRAPPA, MrBayes et al. (breakpoint median, tree search & bounding, likelihood calculation); sparse (iterative) linear algebra (asymmetric & symmetric sparse matrix-vector multiply); data mining; SIFT image feature extraction
University of Tennessee: Quantum Monte Carlo codes for chemistry; random-number codes; linear algebra/iterative refinement codes
Washington University in St. Louis: Computational biology; computational finance
Others TBD
