Universities make major investments in Unity Cluster
UMass Amherst professor Michael Zink, electrical and computer engineering, is the principal investigator of a new $399,676 National Science Foundation (NSF) grant to extend the UNITY cluster to be used by scientists from UMass Amherst, UMass Dartmouth, and the University of Rhode Island for important calculations in gravitational wave science, metagenomics, earthquake detection, and cancer modeling, among other applications.
UMass Dartmouth will also be contributing $600,000 to UNITY thanks to a U.S. Air Force Office of Scientific Research grant that includes URI Professor Gaurav Khanna as a co-principal investigator.
