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
Is Pegasus an integral part of your work? If so, we want to know! We love to keep up with all the ways in which Pegasus is applied. Regardless of subject or field, the Pegasus Team wants to know how our users are benefiting from Pegasus and how we can continue to … Read More
Congratulations to our collaborator XENON1T who just observed the rarest decay process ever measured! While this liquid xenon Time Projection Chamber is designed to search for dark matter, its ultra-low background allows the chamber to be sensitive to a large range of rare processes. One of these is the 2 … Read More
Ariella Gladstein at the University of Arizona reconstructed the population history of Ashkenazi Jews, who are Jews historically from Central and Eastern Europe. The Ashkenazi Jews are often used in genetic studies due to their high rates of genetic disorders and complicated population history. However, until now, genetic studies have … Read More
