EXERCISE - Explore Emerging Computing in Science and Engineering

Description

We are excited to host this unique Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU) Site: EXERCISE - Explore Emerging Computing in Science and Engineering. It is the first REU site at Salisbury University and the first CISE REU site in the Eastern Shore of Maryland.

EXERCISE (Explore Emerging Computing in Science and Engineering) is an interdisciplinary project that explores emerging paradigms in parallel computing with data and compute-intensive applications in science and engineering.

In the EXERCISE project, students will apply emerging parallel computing models including GPU computing with NVIDIA CUDA (a local parallel processing system) and MapReduce computing on Amazon EC2 (a distributed parallel processing system) to tackle data and compute-intensive problems in computer networks and security, image and signal processing, and geographic information system.

Eligibility

  • United States citizens or permanent residents
  • A STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) major or interested in STEM
  • GPA 3.0 or above
  • Programming knowledge in either of C, C++, Java, Python, R, or MATLAB
  • Non-graduating undergraduate students (still enrolled as undergraduate student in Fall 2024)
