Roadrunner Open Science Projects

Ten LANL projects have been selected to use the Roadrunner accelerated petascale system for science and engineering simulations. Roadrunner is a hybrid 1.4-petaflop/s computing system with more than 80 TB of memory. These projects will be completed in a 4-month period as part of HPC Division’s system stabilization activities following the installation of Roadrunner at LANL. The committee that selected the following projects expects them to result in technical publications and presentations of the highest quality, demonstrating the excellence of the science and value of the enabling technology.
