February Funding Focus Newsletter Special Release #2
What is a Limited Submission?
A limited submission solicitation (RFA, RFP, etc.) places a cap on the number of proposals that Auburn may submit to a sponsor. Auburn coordinates limited submissions by sending out a notification via this newsletter and creating competitions in the Auburn University Competition Space (also known as InfoReady). To apply to any limited submission posted in this newsletter, click on the link below and search for your competition listed on the page. Please refer to the Limited Submission Procedures page for a general list of requirements. However, it is recommended that you go to the specific competition as soon as possible and review the requirements to ensure that you are preparing what is requested since the required information for competitions may vary.
Limited Submission Announcement

DOE is interested in receiving research applications to explore potentially high-impact approaches in the development and use of data reduction techniques and algorithms to facilitate more efficient analysis and use of massive data sets produced by observations, experiments and simulation.

Research proposed may involve methods primarily applicable to high-performance computing, to scientific edge computing, or anywhere scientific data must be collected or processed. Significant innovations will be required in the development of effective paradigms and approaches for realizing the full potential of data reduction for science. Proposed research should not focus only on particular data sets from specific applications, but rather on creating the body of knowledge and understanding that will inform future scientific advances.

Proposals should support applied mathematics and computer science approaches that address one or more of the identified priority research directions:

  • Effective algorithms and tools that can be trusted by scientists for accuracy and efficiency,
  • Progressive reduction algorithms that enable data to be prioritized for efficient streaming,
  • Algorithms which can preserve information in features and quantities of interest with quantified uncertainty, and
  • Mapping techniques to new architectures and use cases.

Please note that application requirements for this competition differ from standard Limited Submission requirements.

Institutional Limit: 2 Preapplications
Internal Deadline: March 6, 2024, 4:45pm
