Abstract

The new Australian Computational Earth Systems Simulator (ACcESS) research facility provides a virtual laboratory for studying the solid Earth and its complex system behavior. The facility's capabilities complement those developed by overseas groups, thereby creating the infrastructure for an international computational solid Earth research virtual observatory. This new facility will consist of a high-level computational framework, parallel software, and supercomputer hardware for solid Earth simulation. The ACsESS simulator facility includes capabilities to model rocks and granular systems at the particle scale, dynamics of crustal fault systems and geological processes.

Bibliographical note

Funding Information:
ACcESS (see www.access.edu.au) is one of the two new national facilities in the physical sciences that were established under the Commonwealth government’s Major National Research Facilities (MNRF) 2003–2007 program. Headquartered at the Earth Systems Science Computational Centre (www.esscc.uq.edu.au)—formerly at Quakes—at the University of Queensland, the AUS$15 million facility is being funded by the Australian Commonwealth government, the Queensland government, the Victorian government, a consortium of the participant universities, two governmental agencies (the Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation and Queensland Department of Main Roads), and a leading parallel supercomputer vendor (SGI).

Funding Information:
We gratefully acknowledge support from the Australian Computational Earth Systems Simulator national research facility, the Commonwealth of Australia MNRF program, the Australian Research Council, the Queensland State Government, the University of Queensland, and SGI. The Queensland State Government Smart State Research Facility Fund and SGI funded the ACcESS supercomputer.
