Program Summary
The NanoWatt Platforms for Sensing, Analysis and Computation (NaPSAC) program seeks to develop new modalities for advanced scientific computing applications with beyond state-of-the-art (SoA) speed, accuracy and power efficiency. Applications of NaPSAC-based computing engines include modeling and simulation of complex multiscale problems such as turbulent flows, plasma dynamics, heat transport in heterogeneous materials and modeling of high performance materials. The NaPSAC program will explore new avenues of ‘in-memory’ computing based on nanophotonic and nanoelectromechanical arrays, develop new paradigms of massively parallel hyperspectral computation, and benchmark these concepts against SoA solvers in high performance scientific computing applications.
