Subject: NERSC to Offer 10 Teraflop/s System by Early 2003
Author: Francesca Verdier <fverdier_at_lbl.gov>
Date: 2002-11-05 14:43:53
NERSC has signed a contract with IBM to double the size of its 3,328-processor RS/6000 SP supercomputer, creating a machine with a peak speed of 10 teraflop/s. NERSC made the decision to increase the capability of the existing system, rather than purchase an entirely new one, after a thorough review of proposals from a number of leading supercomputer vendors. The new contract, which includes five years of support for the combined system, is valued at about $30 million.
