The Research in Advanced Distributed Cyberinfrastructure and Applications Laboratory (RADICAL) is interested in Cyberinfrastructure Research & Development, Computation & Data-enabled Science & Engineering and many fundamental aspects of Computing. In addition to cyberinfrastructure research and development, RADICAL is engaged in using advanced cyberinfrastructure to address challenging science & engineering problems at scale. RADICAL members lead the SAGA project — a global distributed computing standard, used by many applications, tool-developers and production distributed computing infrastructures. We develop RADICAL Cybertools — a repertoire of tools and capabilities that enable the scalable, extensible and interoperable utilization of regional, national and international production distributed cyberinfrastructure. RADICAL is also engaged in understanding fundamental and advanced computing concepts to enable advances in scientific computing at scale. See Projects Pages for some exciting examples of the projects we are working on. RADICAL is part of the Rutgers ECE, Rutgers Discovery Informatics Institute (RDI2) and Center for Cloud and Autonomic Computing (CAC).
