NSF Grant to Support Open Source Engineering
A team of researchers at the University of Notre Dame has received a $1.4M grant from the National Science Foundation titled Open Sourcing the Design of Civil Infrastructure. This project will create a virtual organization and online collaborative facility that will enable new ways of designing and evaluating civil infrastructure by applying concepts from the open source software community. The faculty team leading the project consists of civil engineers Dr. Tracy Kijewski-Correa and Dr. Ahsan Kareem, computer scientists Dr. Greg Madey and Dr. Douglas Thain, and social scientist David Hachen.Monday, September 14, 2009 - Permalink
