The ACMC is a research centre within
The University of Queensland
which specialises in modelling, visualisation and high performance
computing. It currently employs approximately 20 computational scientists
who work on a diverse range of projects in fields such as science,
engineering, medicine and visual arts. In addition we have several
postgraduate students enrolled in PhD, Masters and Honours courses.
Other university staff and industry representatives can be seconded
to the Centre for specific projects and for professional training.
The ACMC heavily utilises the University of Queensland's Visualisation
and Advanced Computation Laboratory (ViSAC).
The Centre for Plant Architecture and Informatics (CPAI)
came under the umbrella of the ACMC in 2003.
The ACMC can provide:
-
professional training courses
in advanced computational techniques, visualisation tools and
World Wide Web technologies and associated informatics;
-
the ViSAC laboratory and the supercomputer
as an aesthetic world-class venue for commercial based courses
and workshops;
-
software engineering services
including rewrites and porting of code to high performance workstations
and supercomputers.
Some of the expertise available to outside groups
include:
-
software development;
-
advice in scientific computation,
visualisation and Web technologies;
-
advice on software packages;
-
software re-engineering;
-
training of staff through secondment
to the centre;
-
simulation and software development
through student sponsorship schemes;
-
public Internet sessions and professional
Workshops.
