History

SRB development began in 1995, through the cooperative efforts of General Atomics, the Data Intensive Cyber Environments Group (DICE), and the San Diego Supercomputer Center (SDSC) at the University of California, San Diego (UCSD) with the support of the National Science Foundation (NSF).

SRB software, or middleware, builds on the work of Dr. Reagan Moore. Dr. Moore, a doctorate in plasma physics from UCSD and former computational plasma physicist at General Atomics, has been with the San Diego Supercomputer Center since its inception.

In 2003, General Atomics was granted an exclusive license from UCSD to further develop the capabilities of SRB for use in commercial applications.

Famous quotes containing the word history:

    The view of Jerusalem is the history of the world; it is more, it is the history of earth and of heaven.
    Benjamin Disraeli (1804–1881)

    The history of the world is none other than the progress of the consciousness of freedom.
    Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel (1770–1831)

    They are a sort of post-house,where the Fates
    Change horses, making history change its tune,
    Then spur away o’er empires and o’er states,
    Leaving at last not much besides chronology,
    Excepting the post-obits of theology.
    George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)
