The site is supported by the Department of Defense in partnership with the NSF REU program.The award provides support for a three-year REU Site at the College of Staten Island (City University of New York) with technical support from CUNY's High Performance Computing Center, in an area of increasing national importance: Computational Methods in High Performance Computing with Applications in Computer Science. The REU Site recruits eight undergraduate students, for a ten-week summer experience, who undertake challenging problems with their mentors, in different research sub-fields of computer science (e.g., Graph Theory, Network Reliability, Cryptography, Network Security, Wireless Ad-hoc, Sensor Networks, and Complex Systems Modeling and Simulation) that require parallel processing programming techniques to be solved. Selected students develop competency in scientific research, improve oral presentations and writing skills. The program is aimed to help students produce significant research results which are written up in a format acceptable for publication in either a conference or journal.Students are recruited from colleges and universities that offer limited or no STEM research opportunities, such as historically minority colleges and universities. Emphasis is placed on attracting minority and female students. Research and technical activities are integrated with group activities which include site visits to state-of-the art research facilities in the New York metropolitan area, seminars conducted by faculty, and social activities to enhance the diversity of the group. Seminars in career development, ethical issues in computer science, literature search, technical writing, and graduate school advisement, are integral parts of the program. The program is expected to draw students into research and provide them with the intellectual and motivational tools to engage them in graduate studies and pursue research careers in computer science or related fields.

该站点由国防部与 NSF REU 计划合作提供支持。该奖项为史泰登岛学院（纽约市立大学）的 REU 站点提供为期三年的支持，并由纽约市立大学高性能计算中心提供技术支持，在一个日益重要的国家领域：高性能计算的计算方法及其在计算机科学中的应用。 REU 站点招收八名本科生，进行为期十周的暑期体验，他们与导师一起在计算机科学的不同研究子领域（例如图论、网络可靠性、密码学​​、网络安全、无线广告）解决具有挑战性的问题。 hoc、传感器网络以及复杂系统建模和仿真）需要并行处理编程技术来解决。选定的学生培养科学研究能力，提高口头陈述和写作技巧。该计划旨在帮助学生产生重要的研究成果，并以可以在会议或期刊上发表的格式撰写。学生是从提供有限或不提供 STEM 研究机会的学院和大学中招募的，例如历史悠久的少数族裔学院和大学大学。重点是吸引少数民族学生和女学生。研究和技术活动与团体活动相结合，其中包括对纽约大都市区最先进的研究设施进行实地考察、教师举办的研讨会以及增强团体多样性的社交活动。职业发展、计算机科学伦理问题、文献检索、技术写作和研究生院建议等研讨会是该项目的组成部分。该计划预计将吸引学生参与研究，并为他们提供智力和激励工具，使他们参与研究生学习并从事计算机科学或相关领域的研究职业。
