Computational Sciences and Engineering

The mission of the Computational Sciences and Engineering Division is to enhance the country's capabilities in achieving important objective in the areas of national defense, homeland security, energy assurance, and biomedical technology.

Our science agenda is focused on research and development related to knowledge discovery from the explosive growth in the availability of dynamic and disparate data sources. This encompasses data exploration, data fusion, and advanced modeling and simulation for uncovering the underlying complex processes generating the data.

From a science and technology disciplines perspective, we carry out this agenda with special focus in the areas of text analysis, agent-based and discrete-event simulation, emergent behavior in social systems, predictive analysis, real-time knowledge management, sensor networks, spatial-temporal data mining, population interactions with physical infrastructure, cyber security, and quantum information science.

Our staff is composed of approximately 130 full-time staff, 50 subcontractors, and 50 students, primarily in the disciplines of computer science, engineering, physics, operations research and applied mathematics.
