Resources:

The comprehensive structure proposed integrates a novel research and educational infrastructure with the teaching and research facilities already present at NMSU and at the collaborating institutions.

Research Infrastructure:

KLAP - Knowledge representation, Logic, and Advanced Programming Laboratory , NMSU (NSF Research Resources)

PLEASE - Programming Languages, Environments, and Automated Software Engineering Laboratory (NSF MII)

Parallel Computing Laboratory (ARO/NSF)

Evolutionary Biology Laboratory, NMSU

Genetic Testing Laboratory, NMSU

NMSU DNA Sequencing Facility

Jornada Basin Long-term Ecological Research (LTER) (NSF)

NM-BRIN : Biomedical Research Infrastructure Network (NIH)

Baker Center for Bioinformatics, ISU

Inst. for Natural Resources Analysis and Management (NSF)

The NMSU CS department and the Arts and Sciences Research Center will provide the administrative infrastructure required to support the activities of the Center. The CS department will provide technical support in the management of the equipment to be located in the Center’s new facility—the department has 2 full-time and 3 part-time system support specialists. System administration in the other laboratories is provided by the departmental support staff as well as by NMSU’s Computing & Networking Office, which also manages a vBNS connection and gigabit links connecting various departments on campus. Adequate computing infrastructure to support the proposed research projects is provided by the various departments—e.g., a Myrinet-based 64-node Beowulf cluster (CS), a 16-node HP server, a hybrid 16-node Beowulf cluster (CS), and dedicated bioinformatics computing laboratories (SWBIC, BRIN - Biomedical Research Infrastructure Network).
