About the Cornell Theory Center

The Cornell Theory Center at Cornell University is one of four National Advanced Scientific Computing Centers established by the National Science Foundation. It is actively supported by NSF, the Advanced Research Projects Agency (ARPA), the the National Center for Research Resources at the National Institutes of Health (NIH), NY State, and its corporate sponsors. The Theory Center's resources have been used by more than 5,000 researchers in fields as diverse as aerospace engineering, economics, and epidemiology. Its staff offers technical expertise in software, visualization, and parallel processing to its users, and investigates new, highly parallel processing resources for the scientific community in order to increase the usability of these computers through systems development and through examination of techniques to improve performance. A variety of education and training programs are also offered to high school, undergraduate, and graduate students, and their professors. The Theory Center's reputation as a world-class high-performance computing resource is based on its:

Interdisciplinary research collaborations among academia, industry, and government researchers
Integrated and highly parallel high-performance computing environment
World-class education and training programs
Powerful local, national, and international technology exchange networks
