Journal ArticleDOI

XSEDE: Accelerating Scientific Discovery

TL;DR: XSEDE's integrated, comprehensive suite of advanced digital services federates with other high-end facilities and with campus-based resources, serving as the foundation for a national e-science infrastructure ecosystem.
Proceedings Article

TeraGrid: Analysis of organization, system architecture, and middleware enabling new types of applications

Charlie Catlett, +96 more
TL;DR: The TeraGrid project has been supported through a variety of funding and in-kind con- tributions in addition to multiple grants from the National Science Foundation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Three-dimensional numerical relativity: The evolution of black holes

TL;DR: It is shown how special treatment of the conformal factor can lead to more accurate evolution, and techniques to handle black hole spacetimes in the absence of symmetries are discussed, which can prevent the development of large gradients in the metric functions that result from singularity avoiding time slicings.
Journal ArticleDOI

Enabling real-time multi-messenger astrophysics discoveries with deep learning

TL;DR: The key challenges of real-time observations of gravitational wave sources and their electromagnetic and astroparticle counterparts are reviewed, and a number of recommendations to maximize their potential for scientific discovery are made.
