  3. Modeling a Saturnian MoonThis project hopes to add to our understanding of space systems by providing a comprehensive simulation of the Saturnian moon system. By doing this, this project attempts to expose what phenomena can't be explained with modern models and perhaps suggest theories to explain the unexplained. 3

  4. Modeling Atmosperic ChangeMy goal is to create a model of the atmosphere over time, predicting its strength given the increasing amount of pollution as well as the controversial but effective Montreal Protocol. Many projects are in place to save the ozone, and this model will assist in assessing the impact of anti-pollution movements and determine the longterm possible outcome given many parameters. This model features usercontrolled variables, allowing the user to manipulate the year, solar flux, and existence of anti-pollution projects. 4

  5. An Investigation into Implementations of DNA Sequence Pattern Matching AlgorithmsThere is an immense amount of genetic data generated by government efforts such as the human genome project and by organization efforts such as The Institute for Genomic Research (TIGR). there exist large amounts of unused processing power in schools and labs across the country. Harnessing some of this power is a useful problem not just for the specific application in Bioinformatics of DNA sequence pattern matching. 5

  6. Modeling of Evacuation Centers Using NetLogoModeling is a powerful tool that allows a programmer or social engineer to observe cause-and-effect relationships in occurences that a) happen too slowly or quickly to see, b) involve danger or safety concerns, c) occur on a scale too large or too small for study, d) is not a common occurrence. Using NetLogo, a multi-agent programmable modeling environment, the socio- and psychological factorsaffecting decision-making in these situations can be effectively simulated. 6

  7. Construction and Application of a Pentium II Beowulf ClusterI plan to construct a super computing cluster of about 15-20 or more Pentium II computers with the OpenMosix kernel patch. Once constructed, the cluster could be configured to transparently aid workstations with computationally expensive jobs run in the lab. This project would not only increase the computing power of the lab, but it would also be an experiment in building a lowlevel, lowcost cluster with a stripped down version of Linux, useful to any facility with old computers they would otherwise deem outdated. 7
