This award updates computing resources in the Arkansas High Performance Computing Center (AHPCC) to support research and education in Arkansas, an EPSCoR state. AHPCC is based at the University of Arkansas and supports higher education institutions in the state, including the University of Arkansas at Pine Bluff (an HBCU), Arkansas Tech University, the University of Arkansas at Little Rock, the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences, Philander Smith University (an HBCU), and others. This acquisition doubles all-user CPU capacity on a much more efficient system, adding 37 dual-socket server computers interconnected with a 100 Gb/s InfiniBand HDR-100 network and including supporting equipment such as an administrative Ethernet network, and two computer racks with power distribution, and water cooling.The system supports research aligned with data science engineering, artificial intelligence, computational physics, materials science, biology, chemistry, and biochemistry, and continues a tradition of high-impact discoveries enabled by AHPCC. Examples of cutting-edge science enabled by this acquisition include: model order reduction and physics-based machine learning algorithms, new 2D multiferroics and materials for neuromorphic computing, dynamics of soft capsules within nano-channels, and assessing global warming through microbial evolution. Research activities to recruit, train and prepare the STEM workforce are also supported, especially in data-analytics, for which there is a strong need from local companies. The research and technical teams publish research in journals and conferences and deliver lecture series and workshops that train statewide users on High Performance Computing technologies and attract new users. The award ensures an increased participation of highly qualified women and under-represented faculty and students, helping create a more diverse workforce. This instrument is part of the Open Science Grid Consortium.This award by the Office of Advanced Cyberinfrastructure is jointly supported by the Established Program to Stimulate Competitive Research (EPSCoR).This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

该奖项更新了阿肯色州高性能计算中心（AHPCC）的计算资源，以支持EPSCOR州阿肯色州的研究和教育。 AHPCC位于阿肯色大学，并支持该州的高等教育机构，包括阿肯色大学的Pine Bluff大学（HBCU），阿肯色州科技大学，阿肯色大学的阿肯色大学，阿肯色大学，阿肯色大学医学科学大学，菲兰德·史密斯大学（HBCU）等。这项采集使所有用户CPU在更高效的系统上加倍，并增加了37个双插槽服务器计算机，与100 GB/s Infiniband HDR-100网络相互联系，包括支持以太网网络的支持设备，例如行政以太网网络，以及两个计算机机架，以及两个具有功率分配的计算机架子，并与功率分配和水冷却。生物化学，并继续AHPCC实现了高影响力的传统。这次收购支持的尖端科学的示例包括：降低模型订单和基于物理的机器学习算法，新的2D多效体和用于神经形态计算的材料，纳米通道内软胶囊的动态动态，以及通过微生物进化评估全球变暖。还支持招募，培训和准备STEM劳动力的研究活动，尤其是在数据分析学方面，当地公司对此有很大需求。研究和技术团队在期刊和会议上发表研究，并提供讲座系列和讲习班，以培训全州用户的高性能计算技术并吸引新用户。该奖项确保了高素质妇女和代表性不足的教职员工的参与度增加，从而帮助创造了更多样化的劳动力。该工具是开放科学网格联盟的一部分。该奖项由既定的计划刺激竞争性研究（EPSCOR）共同支持，该奖项颁发了该奖项。该奖项反映了NSF的法定任务，并被认为是通过基金会的智力和更广泛影响的评估来审查Criteria的评估，以评估值得通过评估。
