Abstract
The Oak Ridge Leadership Computing Facility (OLCF) was established at Oak Ridge National Laboratory in 2004 with the mission of accelerating scientific discovery and engineering progress by providing outstanding computing and data management resources to high-priority research and development projects. OLCF unveiled Titan in 2013, which is capable of 27 petaflops. Titan is one of the first hybrid architecture systems—a combination of graphics processing units (GPUs), and the more conventional central processing units (CPUs) that have served as number crunchers in computers for decades. The OLCF gives the world’s most advanced computational researchers an opportunity to tackle problems that would be unthinkable on other systems.
