Full Description of Opportunity:
This program provides support for physics proposals in three subareas:
computational physics, information intensive physics, and quantum
information and revolutionary computing. Computational physics focuses on
computational problems in physics requiring significant long-term code
development, and/or medium to large collaboratories involving physicists
or physicists interacting with applied mathematicians and computer
scientists. Information intensive physics seeks proposals to develop
rapid, secure and efficient access to physics data stores rising from
Petabytes (today) to Exabytes (in 10 years) via heterogeneous and
distributed computing resources and networks of varying capability and
reliability and to develop internally consistent approaches to the usage
of common resources required in the multiple collaborations and serving
virtual science organizations on a global scale. Quantum information and
revolutionary computing supports proposals that e
 xplore applications of quantum mechanics to new computing paradigms for
physics or that foster interactions between the physical, mathematical and
computer scientists which push the frontiers of quantum information
science. Proposals may include an educational component.
