Oak Ridge National Laboratory has been to the winner’s circle on numerous occasions. But the Jaguar supercomputer, to date, has been one of their best victories, not only for ORNL, but for Cray, AMD and at a much larger level, U.S. technology competitiveness.
Less than a month ago, ORNL was finally able to announce a significant award to Cray for the next stage of Jaguar, growing the system into the ten to twenty petaFLOPS range with the addition of GPU accelerators from NVIDIA.
