The SciTech group does research and development on software systems to help scientists manage large-scale computations. We work with scientists in domains ranging from genomics and proteomics to seismology and gravitational wave physics. We help scientists deploy their computations on some of the largest and fastest computing systems in the … Read More
Summit is a leadership-class computing system for open science that is hosted at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory. Summit, launched in 2018, delivers 8 times the computational performance of Titan’s 18,688 nodes, using only 4,608 nodes. Its architecture with the associated GPU resources, makes it an attractive resource for scientists … Read More
Computational science today depends on many complex, compute and data-intensive applications operating on distributed datasets that originate from a variety of scientific instruments and data repositories. Two major challenges for these applications are (1) the provisioning of compute resources and (2) the integration of data into the scientists’ workflow. Background … Read More
