ORNL Gears Up for New Leadership Computing Systems by Michael Feldman HPCwire Editor Last week at the High Performance Computing and Communication Conference in Newport, Rhode Island, Doug Kothe gave an overview of leadership computing facility at Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) and talked about the lab's plans for its future computing systems. Kothe, the Director of Science in the National Center for Computational Sciences (NCCS) at ORNL, and a nuclear engineer by training, is no stranger to supercomputers. He has spent most of his career at Los Alamos National Laboratory developing and working with CFD and other multi-physics codes. Before coming to ORNL in January 2006, he was the Deputy Program Director of the LANL ASC Program. As part of his presentation at the conference, Kothe gave the audience a sense of the preparations going on around the upcoming Cray supercomputer deployments. As one of the Department of Energy's leadership computing facilities, ORNL is in line to get some of the most powerful systems on the planet. By late 2007, ORNL will have upgraded the existing 119-teraflop Cray XT4 'Jaguar' system to a peak performance of 250 teraflops. By late 2008, a new one petaflops Cray 'Baker' system will be installed. Both machines will employ the upcoming quad-core AMD Opteron processors. The current and planned systems at ORNL represent the largest open resources for computational science research in the world. The scientific research being conducted on these machines is through projects granted allocations via the highly competitive and popular INCITE Program (http://hpc.science.doe.gov/allocations/incite/). ... hpcwire.com
