Northwestern University has established a Center for Parallel and Distributed
Computing which headed by Prof. Prith Banerjee.
The goals of the Center are to conduct
leading-edge, fundamental science and engineering research that will provide
a sound technological basis to the technology of parallel and
distributed computing.
The specific research
areas that will be undertaken at the Center
will be all aspects of parallel and distributed
computing, namely, parallel architectures, parallel compilers
and software, parallel
algorithms and applications, parallel and distributed
