U.S. Energy Secretary Steven Chu recently made a quick visit to ORNL, where he got a briefing on advanced computer simulations of nuclear energy and even took a turn experiencing the 3D environment of a virtual reactor’s nuclear core.
Homa Karimabadi’s team, in close collaboration with William Daughton at Los Alamos National Laboratory, is currently using the OLCF’s Jaguar supercomputer to better understand the processes giving rise to space weather.
ORNL was once again a major player at high-performance computing’s (HPC’s) premier conference, SC11, which took place in Seattle, WA from November 12-18.
Once again, the Department of Energy’s premier supercomputing facility will have plenty to offer at SC11 in Seattle, Washington. Drop by the ORNL exhibit to see the latest in scientific visualizations, find out what’s new at the nation’s most powerful computing complex, or hear from a range of experts representing all areas of computational science.
