SGI Award
for Computational Science and Visualization
This
award is sponsored by SGI, a leader in high performance
computing and visualization technology. The award recognizes
outstanding contributions by Notre Dame graduate students
in the areas of computational sciences and visualization.
These contributions may include applications of high
performance computing and/or visualization technology,
or the development of algorithms, codes, software environments
or other tools for better using high performance computing.
Awards are presented to graduate students in the Colleges
of Science, Engineering and Arts and Letters.

Awards
Arts and
Letters: Timothy Gallant is an industrial design student in
the Master of Fine Arts Program. His research advisor is Professor
Paul Down. Tim is recognized for his creative use of
computer-aided design and visualization techniques in
the design and production of an elegant, multipurpose
chair fabricated from aluminum and polycarbonate thermoplastic.
Science:
Marianna Safronova is a Ph.D. student in the Department of
Physics. Her research advisor is Professor Walter Johnson.
Marianna is recognized for making important advances in
the application of high-performance computing to relativistic
atomic structure calculations. Her published work has
generated considerable interest among the atomic physics
community worldwide, and has inspired new experimental
work in atomic physics. http://www.nd.edu/~msafrono
Engineering:
Yiannis Kaznessis received the Ph.D. degree in Chemical Engineering
in January 2000. His research advisors were Professor
Ed Maginn and Professor Davide Hill. Yiannis is recognized
for the development and application of atomistic computer
simulation methodology to study the dynamic and dielectric
properties of polar polymers. This work was recently chosen
by the NCSA (National Computational Science Alliance)
as a feature story for their magazine "Access". page
