SUMMARY:Fernbach Award Presentation - The Roles of Computing in the Advanc
 ement of Science:  A Case Study
DESCRIPTION:Awards Presentation\nTech Program Reg Pass, Exhibits Reg Pass\
 n\nFernbach Award Presentation - The Roles of Computing in the Advancement
  of Science:  A Case Study\n\nPetzold\n\nStochasticity plays an important 
 role in many biological processes.  At the same time, algorithms and softw
 are for discrete stochastic simulation have advanced to the point where no
 t only simulation of well-mixed systems, but spatial stochastic simulation
  on 3D complex geometries can be performed with accuracy and reliability. 
  A few years ago we embarked on a quest to build a unified software enviro
 nment, StochSS, to enable biologists to easily harness the power of these 
 tools.  We envisioned that users might build an ODE model or discrete stoc
 hastic model on a laptop, and scale it up to increasing levels of complexi
 ty, accessing tools such as those mentioned above, and deploying computing
  resources from the cloud with the push of a button when they are needed. 
  As the capabilities of StochSS have grown, so has our vision of the roles
  that computing can play in the advancement of science.
