nanoHUB.org: cloud-based services for nanoscale modeling, simulation, and education

nanoHUB.org is arguably one of the most successful science gateways funded by the National Science Foundation (NSF). It is the cyberinfrastructure that supports the Network for Computational Nanotechnology (NCN), currently serving over 240,000 users annually in 172 countries worldwide. It features a range of resources including seminars, online courses, short courses, full-fledged tool-powered curricula, and over 260 online simulations and modeling tools. nanoHUB functions as a scientific cloud where users cannot only design and run their tools but also provide a worldwide audience access to these tools with no installation or minimal infrastructural requirements on the users’ part
