Abstract
The novel integration of computers, networks, and data archives – cyberinfrastrucrture - can have a transformative impact on how we work, learn, and collaborate. The speaker will share some personal experiences on creating the nanoHUB, the precursor to HUBzero, and some thoughts on what cyberinfrastructure means from the perspective of an individual faculty member.
Bio
Mark Lundstrom received the B.E.E. and M.S.E.E. degrees from the University of Minnesota, Minneapolis, and the Ph.D. in electrical engineering from Purdue. Before coming to Purdue, he worked at Hewlett-Packard Corporation on integrated circuit process development and manufacturing support. Lundstrom is the Don and Carol Scifres Distinguished Professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering and was the founding director of the Network for Computational Nanotechnology. His research interests center on the physics of small electronic devices and more recently on devices for energy conversion, storage, and conservation. He is a fellow of the Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers, the American Physical Society, and the American Association for the Advancement of Science, a member of the U.S. National Academy of Engineering, and the recipient of several national awards for his contributions to education and research.
