Elevating nanoHUB to the Next Level – Vision and Status 2014
Short description: More than 330,000 users in 172 countries annually participate in nanoHUB.org, a science and engineering gateway providing the capability to perform online simulation resources through a web browser without the installation of any software. nanoHUB is an online meeting place for simulation, research, collaboration, teaching, learning and publishing. More than 12,000 users run simulation software from their browser in nanoHUB’s science computing cloud. Cumulatively more than 19,000 students in more than 1,000 classes utilised nanoHUB simulations in classrooms and more than 2,200 authors referenced nanoHUB in more than 1,100 scientific publications. The platform has spawned nanoHUB-U and, in turn, Purdue HUB-U, interfaces for online courses that are broadly accessible around the world.
Presenter: Dr Gerhard Klimeck, Professor, Electrical and Computer Engineering and, Director of nanoHUB, the Network for Computational Nanotechnology, Purdue University
