ORNL at SC2002

ORNL Booth abstract (photos)

ORNL highlights scientific discoveries through advanced computing in climate, genomics, materials, astrophysics, and fusion made possible by advances in mathematical methods and high performance computing. Learn how performance evaluations of early systems are used to develop specialized techniques to optimize applications for terascale systems. See how OSCAR tools and Harness/PVM help build fault-tolerant clusters that can be administered via a web browser. Check out plug-ins for going unplugged and the CCA (Common Component Architecture) -- the next best thing to cut and paste for developing large-scale multi-disciplinary simulations.
