Additional Comments: ABSTRACT: Research computing has changed dramatically in the last few years, and those changes are reshaping how Duke provides research computing support to Duke researchers. The scope and characteristics of computing for research has long come in "large packages" that have unyielding rules and restrictions -- to which researchers conformed their research projects. Increasingly, the emphasis has shifted, so that researchers now have the opportunity to tailor computing resources to fit their particular needs. The talk explores this transformation in research computing and presents offerings that Duke Research Computing has developed.
