    • "Success Stories":
      
      • Theoretical chemists at Rutgers University use Alliance resources to
        search for the elusive mechanism of one of the world's most proficient enzymes.
      • Ban the Bomb Computational models of laser-aided chemical etching,
        completed on NCSA's SGI Origin2000, open the door for new methods
        of fabricating microelectromechanical machines.
      • Birth of a Titan NCSA finds that the key to bringing the world's
        largest Itanium Linux Cluster online is actually people.
      • Putting the Grid in NEESgrid Grid computing provides the backbone for a
        distributed virtual laboratory for experimentation and simulation in
        earthquake engineering.
      • Modeling Molecular Fate SUNY scientists examine the chemical reactions
        that give rise to excessive atmospheric ozone.
      • Mixed Emulsions Virginia Tech researchers simulate the behavior of
        emulsions as they mix and break into drops.
      • Caterpillar's Metamorphosis Caterpillar garners the NCSA Private Sector
        Program's 2002 Industrial Grand Challenge Award, honoring more than a
        decade of breakthroughs.
      • Dynamic DNA Molecular dynamics simulations on an Alliance cluster help
        biochemists understand how damaged DNA is recognized by a cell's genetic
        repair system.
      • Marks of Extinction During the late Permian periodroughly 260 million
        years agoat least 90 percent of Earth's species vanished, never to be seen
        again. Researchers use Alliance resources to explore why.
      • Shedding Light on Dark Matter Massive computer simulations are giving
        scientists clues to the nature of dark matter.
