The Scientific Computing Group

The Scientific Computing Group (SCG) of the High Performance Computing Department, Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, works on diverse scientific applications in connections with the fields of
  • Astrophysics
  • Atmospheric and Ocean Modeling
  • Material Sciences
  • Nanosciences
  • Data Mining and Data-intensive Computing
as well as generic problems in scientific computing:
  • Numerical Linear Algebra such as dense and sparse linear/eigen system solvers
  • Mathematical libraries and templates
  • Parallel Programming Environments and Software Tools
The SCG is a place where cross-cutting trends in computational sciences and scientific computing meet, fertilize and materialize. The SCG ultimate goal is to advance scientific computing by developing and enhancing applications in key disciplines, as well as developing tools and libraries for addressing general problems in computational science. The group does this by:
  • interacting and collaborating with the scientific community in areas that advance research benefiting DOE and the nation,
  • conducting timely research and development in methodologies and strategies for computational science, and in the design and implementation of highly efficient computational kernels, and
  • contributing application expertise to the National Energy Research Scientific Computing Center (NERSC) programmatic activities.
The group is formed by regular staff, postdoctoral fellows and associate faculty. The SCG also hosts short and long term visitors, as well as a number of summer students every year. Therefore, with our diverse scientific background and complementary research skills, we strive to excel in computational science, enabling and accelerating new scientific discoveries, and providing an intellectually stimulating and educational environment that attracts both researchers and graduate students from the best institutions in the world.
