GORDON AND BETTY MOORE FOUNDATION
The mission of the Moore Foundation includes advancing scientific
research and conservation of the environment. The Foundation sponsors
a range of research projects in a variety of areas. It has generously
provided support for our work on applications of computer science to
analysis of large-scale scientific data.
NATIONAL SCIENCE FOUNDATION
We have received support from the National Science Foundation for
building a compute cluster and developing initial prototype of
distributed eScience applications. We are now using this cluster for
building new computational tools for astronomy and cosmology.
