NERSC served 2,594 scientists throughout the United States
in FY 2002. These researchers work in DOE laboratories, universities,
industry, and other Federal agencies. Figure 1 shows the proportion
of NERSC usage by each type of institution, while Figures
2 and 3 show laboratory, university, and other organizations
that used large allocations of computer time. Computational
science conducted at NERSC covers the entire range of scientific
disciplines, but is focused on research that supports the
DOE’s mission and scientific goals, as shown in Figure
4.
