New Computational Science Resource Community

San Diego 10 December 2000 The Computational Science Resource Community (CSRC) debuted at SC2000. The CSRC is an interactive community-building too to house on-line learning materials, assignments, reviews, and people with a connection to the field of computational science.

CSRC categories are in science and technology, particularly computational science, but it also includes social sciences such as history and art. CSRC can also be used as a teaching tool for undergraduate education.

The CSRC software incorporates an Oracle database, as well as Java servlets running in an Enhydra multiserver environment. The configuration is based on the Online Community Starter Kit (OCSK) software, developed by the Center for Distributed Learning for the California State University.

CSRC is the result of a collaboration between the CDL, located at Sonoma State University; and the EdCenter, located at San Diego State University. The EdCenter is comprised of an interactive group of researchers and educators focused on enhancing undergraduate curricula with supercomputing tools and technology. The computational science group at Boston University will be adding materials from the US National Computational Science Alliance.
