There鈥檚 a good reason research institutions keep pushing for faster supercomputers: They allow the researchers to develop more realistic simulations than slower machines.
Summit won鈥檛 be open to users for another three years, but let鈥檚 not forget that ORNL already has the world鈥檚 second-fastest computer鈥攖he 27 petaflop Titan.
To help researchers make the most of Summit from day one, the Center for Accelerated Application Readiness brings application developers together with experts from the Oak Ridge Leadership Computing Facility and hardware makers IBM and NVIDIA.
