The Road to Teraops: Having brought Intel Paragons to peak levels of performance and reliability, the Center for Computational Sciences plans a detailed evaluation of the exciting new SRC 6 architecture. Also key to ORNL's strategy for developing a multi-teraops computing environment is the development, by Computer Science and Mathematics Division, of tools for distributed and cluster computing.
