Participated projects by Dr. Yan (not in a *PI role)

eXascale PRogramming Environment and System Software (XPRESS), DoE, 2012-2014 (Barbara Chapman as PI). Dr. Yan lead the legacy migration efforts from UH for integrating the OpenMP/MPI runtime environments with the HPX ParallelX execution model implementations created by project partners from LSU and Indiana University. The OpenMP compiler will be based on OpenUH open source research compiler, a branch of Open64.
OpenACC Research Compiler project, Nvidia 2012-2014 (Barbara Chapman as PI). Dr. Yan lead the the project to create an open-source research compiler of OpenACC programming models for accelerators based on OpenUH.
