IEEE Global History Network The IEEE Global History Network, brought to you by the IEEE History Center, is a wiki-based platform dedicated to preserving and promoting the history of innovation in the fields of electrical engineering, its allied fields and its organizations. All IEEE members can contribute content and are encouraged to share their experiences and historical knowledge. Click here to learn more about the website. The Innovation map tracks IEEE Milestones and other important events across the globe. The Timeline displays a chronological list of important technological advancements. IEEE members and invited guests can contribute content to the GHN. Using the form below, you may find pages listed under the IEEE's GHN topics and sub-topics by searching either by keyword or category. Annually the IEEE History Center is financially supported by numerous Institutions and individuals. We need your support to continue the funding for the IEEE Global History Network.

The eSalsa Project With a team of experts from ocean modelling and distributed computing we will tackle the problem of determining projections of future sea level changes due to changes in the North Atlantic ocean circulation. The innovative element is the use of an eddy-resolving ocean model, the Parallel Ocean Model (POP) to determine these sea level changes with an unprecedented level of detail (10 km resolution). The technical challenge is to integrate the ocean model under an ensemble of atmospheric forcing conditions for about 100 years such that also the uncertainties and extremes in sea-level changes can be determined. To realize these computations within the 3-year period of this project, the implementation of new distributed computing techniques in the POP model is essential, as is the use of state-of-the art accelerators such as GPUs. The project will be managed according to the Simulation Lab strategy which is very ambitious and will be transformative in the ocean-modelling field.
