*7 Stampede :-
Stampede, a new addition to the Top 10, is installed at the Texas Advanced Computing Center at the University of Texas in Austin. The new system, called Stampede, will be built by TACC in partnership with Dell and Intel to support for four years the nation's scientists in addressing the most challenging scientific and engineering problems. NSF is providing $27.5 million immediately and Stampede is expected to be up and running in January 2013. The estimated investment will be more than $50 million over four years; the Stampede project may be renewed in 2017, which would enable four additional years of open science research on a successor system.
When Stampede is deployed in 2013, it will be the most powerful system in the NSF XD environment, currently the most advanced, comprehensive, and robust collection of integrated digital resources and services enabling open science research in the world. As a critical part of XD , the Extreme Science and Engineering Discovery Environment ( XSEDE ) consortium comprising more than a dozen universities and two research laboratories, has now replaced the TeraGrid as the integrating fabric for the bulk of the NSF's high- end digital resources. Researchers from any U.S. open science institution can apply to use Stampede for a variety of novel scientific and educational activities through the XSEDE project.
AUSTIN, Texas—The Texas Advanced Computing Center ( TACC ) at The University of Texas at Austin today announced that it will deploy and support a world-class supercomputer with comprehensive computing and visualization capabilities for the open science community, as part of the National Science Foundation's ( NSF ) " EXtreme Digital " ( XD ) program.
Speed: 2.6 petaflops
Date Created: 2012
