LPCR - The Laboratory for Parallel Computing Research
Aims
To conduct basic and advanced research in parallel operating systems,
programming languages, parallelization of numerical methods, parallel
algorithms, distributed communication protocols and computer graphics.
To provide facilities for student training in
undergradate and graduate courses and teaching laboratories
in parallel computing.
To provide the basis for interdisciplinary and inter-university
collaboration in research on parallel and
distributed computing.
To encourage collaboration with Israeli industry active in the
Laboratory's areas of research.
Background
The Laboratory for Parallel Computing Research is part of
the Rashi Center for Parallel Computation, Artificial Intelligence,
Computer Vision and Robotics that was established in the Department
of Computer Science at the Technion in 1992. The Laboratory
was funded by the Fondation Raschi, with matching funds from the
Technion and from the Budgets and Grants Committee of the Israeli
Council for Higher Education.
Structure
All interested faculty members and students, from all
academic institutions in Israel,
whose research is in parallel computing and related
areas, may be affiliated with the Laboratory. Major purchase decisions
are made within the
Steering Committee, after
consultation with the Laboratory faculty.
