Changing Paradigm of Data-Intensive Computing Makes Journal Cover

The Changing Paradigm of Data-Intensive Computing

An article "Changing Paradigm of Data-Intensive Computing," authored by Pacific Northwest National Laboratory researchers Richard Kouzes, Gordon Anderson, Stephen Elbert, Ian Gorton, and Deb Gracio, was selected as the cover feature for the January IEEE Computer Society Journal.

The article describes PNNL's leading-edge research to develop new classes of software, algorithms, and hardware to provide timely and meaningful analytical results from an exponentially growing tidal wave of complex scientific, energy, environmental, and national security related data in the new information-dominated age. Technical leadership in data-intensive computing is a cornerstone of the Laboratory's strategy for growing major new programs in information analytics and decision support.
