ENEA-GRID: Development

Sensor nets

ENEA-GRID

Born in 1998 with 6 Italian geographic clusters.Main aim:

o Give to ENEA researchers a unified environment to use in an easy way heterogeneous computers and applications software;

o Build an homogeneous ICT infrastructure but with a distributed and delegated control;

o Integrate the ENEA-GRID with National and International GRIDS.

Results of simulations conducted on CRESCO : organic-inorganic Molecular Dynamics

Photovoltaic applications: organic solar cells

Polymer solar cells are considered to be a potential candidate to solve the problem of the growing need of renewable, cost-effective energy sources. The maximum open circuit voltage for polymer solar cells is related to the difference between the HOMO of the electron donor and the LUMO of the electron acceptor. We implemented a theoretical approach to design fullerene derivatives to be used as electron acceptor in polymer solar cells. We calculated the LUMO levels of fullerene derivatives successfully used as electron acceptors and we correlated the obtained values with the Voc of the corresponding device.

VISUALIZATION OF A SET OF MILLIONS OF POINTSOSG viewer: Currently there are commercial software capable to display a large amount of data in “near realtime”, but we were oriented to an “open source” solution using our ENEA-GRID, the OpenSceneGraph libraries and the powerful viewer.Distances evaluation: Integrating the ANN library in the OSG viewer code, it was possible to impolement a tool for evaluating distances between points in the 3D scene.
