Center for Data-intensive & Computational Science (DiCoS)

The Data Intensive & Computational Science (DiCoS) Core supports interdisciplinary research collaborations to achieve competitiveness for funding opportunities, in particular major federal grants involving large, multidisciplinary teams.

DiCoS aims to advance both the research frontiers and the underlying infrastructure at the nexus of computational and data science, enabled by high-performance computing and big data. The integration of computational science, and data-intensive research is a central mission.

As a UD Core Facility, DiCoS develops and guides the use of shared resources and scientific expertise to support data science and computational research across campus.  DiCoS identifies the needs of the research and education community, providing scientific expertise and infrastructure support. It leverages available resources and capabilities at UD and collaborates closely with UD Information Technologies and the Research Office.

There are a number of resources and services available to UD researchers affiliated with the DSI:

• Computational Resources
• Storage Resources
• Datasets
• Expert Assistance for Developing Computational and Data-intensive Applications

Additionally, there are a number of resources that may be of interest to UD researchers:

• Strategic Documents of Funding Agencies
• Training
