LSU has named a new university director of high-performance computing.
Honggao Liu, who has worked at LSU for 11 years, is taking the reins of the high-performance computing department, or HPC.
The department operates as a partnership between the LSU Center for Computation and Technology, or CCT, and LSU Information Technology Services, or ITS. HPC staff help campus researchers access LSU’s supercomputing resources and discover new ways to apply the technology to their areas of study.
Liu replaces former HPC Director Brian Ropers-Huilman, who left the university in 2007.
Liu was part of the team that integrated the Louisiana Optical Network Initiative, or LONI, onto the TeraGrid in early 2008 and is the TeraGrid site leader for LONI.
LONI is a high-speed, fiber-optic network that combines supercomputing resources around the state through its universities. TeraGrid is the backbone of U.S. cyber-infrastructure, combining resources from 11 partner sites around the country.
