Research priorities include basic numerical algorithms and parallel programming frameworks to provide common tools across domains, use of numerical algorithms to develop scientific codes for large-scale domain applications, and construction of web-based community portals to provide accessible services. Among all achievements, large-scale phase-field simulation software ScETD-PF was selected as a finalist of 2016 ACM Gordon Bell Prize. The first topological material data catalogue established with CAS Institute of Physics was published in Nature. The computational tool HotSpot3D was published in Nature Genetics and has been widely used in the screening and treatment of tumors.

SC_HCAL is a self-developed library of basic parallel algorithms for large-scale numerical computation, which integrates a variety of numerical parallel algorithms and solvers for common problems including eigenvalue problems, preconditions, sparse linear equations, fast algorithms and grid-particle problems. SC_HCAL has been applied in many fields such as computational physics/materials, computational electromagnetism, quantum chemistry and computational mechanics. 

Developed based on the charm++ runtime system, the parallel application framework SC_Tangram provides a highly adaptive and high-performance runtime environment, demonstrating strength in scalability, latency masking, fine-grained parallelism, dynamic load balance and fault tolerance. SC_Tangram has been applied to astronomical fluid simulation, N-body simulation, Phase field simulation and engineering mechanics simulation. 

Phase Field (PF) is a widely used method to simulate micro-structure evolution and support the study of material properties. ScETD-PF is a large-scale Phase Field (PF) simulation software, which supported the 300 billion degree of freedom PF simulation with a sustained performance of 50 Peta flops (2016 ACM Gordon Bell Prize finalist). The simulation capability of ScETD-PF has been further increased to 1.8 trillion DOFs.

CCFD is a large-scale parallel computational fluid dynamics software based on structured grids, solving the time-dependent conservation law form of the Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes equations. With strengths in robustness, efficiency, accuracy and flexibility, CCFD resolves practical problems encountered in the aeronautical and astronautical areas. 

Based on CPL7, the coupled integrated software platform SC_ESAP supports the parallel optimization of the main component of the Earth System Model of the CAS. The software platform allows users to optimize the performance and integrate the coupling assembly with different complexity and multiple modes, supporting the collaborative development, integration, efficient calculation and application of the earth system model. 

SWFMM: Sunway heterogeneous processor based N-body software 

Collaborated with CAS National Astronomical Observatories, the team develops cosmological N-body simulation using fast multipole method (FMM), particle-mesh method (PM) and related parallel algorithms on heterogeneous platforms. 

MOLY is a software framework developed in-house for high performance molecular dynamics simulations of biosystems and nanomaterials. By implementing flexible MD simulation models and integrating custom force fields, MOLY supports advanced modeling and simulating algorithms adapted to heterogeneous high performance computing platforms.

The ERI library is a library for heterogeneous computation of electron repulsion integrals (ERI) that are used in ab initio calculations to support quantum chemistry research. eMC, a Multi-Configurational Self-Consistent Field/Multi-Configurational Linear Response (MCSCF/MCLR) code, is also being developed for multi-configurational systems. 

Hotspot3D is a high-precision software for identifying high-frequency mutation hotspots in pan-cancer somatic cells.
