Abstract
We would like to purchase two new graphics-processing units (GPUs) for use by the students of the Department of Applied Mathematics. These GPUs will be installed in a remotely accessed GPU server previously funded by the STF. Though "graphics-processing" is in the name, these GPUs are designed not for graphics but for general-purpose computing. And the additional computational abilities of these new GPUs will allow more applied-math students to use the GPU server for intensive computations in fields such as data science, neuroscience, and geophysics.
