Sandia and Cray Inc. co-developed Red Storm, a distributed memory, massively paralleled highperformance supercomputer modeled on ASCI Redl, to run computer codes used for conducting materials science simulations for national security. Supercomputers have some of the fastest highperformance systems available and are used primarily for scientific and engineering work requiring exceedingly high-speed computations. Unlike conventional computers, supercomputers have large storage capacity; more than one central processing unit to rapidly retrieve stored data and program instructions; and input/output capability.
