Dr. Pederson, Dr. Baruah and UTEP postdoctoral associates will collaborate with PNNL and Azure Technologies to develop containerized computational chemistry methods and demonstrations that will be used to initiate a Computational Chemistry as a Service (CCaaS) that will be availed through Microsoft Cloud Services. The effort ranges from rewriting well-tested software tasks in modern programs, demonstrating and testing more efficient methods for computational chemistry and containerizing elementary to advanced computational chemistry applications that both acquaint and effectively train the next generation workforce. UTEP researchers will help PNNL and Azure meet their goals of training an inclusive workforce.
