Data-intensive computing at the intersection of Cloud and multicore technologies with an emphasis on life science applications using MapReduce and traditional parallel and distributed computing approaches. Dr. Qiu leads the SALSA project in the Pervasive Technology Institute at Indiana University. Data intensive science, Cloud computing and Multicore computing are converging and will revolutionize next generation of computing in architectural design and programming challenges. They enable the pipeline: data becomes information becomes knowledge becomes wisdom.
