PROJECTS
MAPP
The MAPP incorporates multiple software packages into one integrated code so that multiphysics simulation codes can perform at scale on present and future supercomputers.
Ascending to Exascale
El Capitan will have a peak performance of more than 2 exaflops—roughly 16 times faster on average than the Sierra system—and is projected to be several times more energy efficient than Sierra.
Innovative HPC Architectures
LC sited two different AI accelerators in 2020: the Cerebras wafer-scale AI engine attached to Lassen; and an AI accelerator from SambaNova Systems into the Corona cluster.

NEWS
LLNL and SambaNova Systems announce additional AI hardware to support Lab’s cognitive simulation efforts
The addition of the spatial data flow accelerator into LLNL’s Livermore Computing Center is part of an effort to upgrade the Lab’s cognitive simulation (CogSim) program.
National lab uses Elastic to optimize performance of projected world's fastest supercomputer
The Lab was already using Elastic components to gather data from its HPC clusters, then investigated whether Elasticsearch and Kibana could be applied to all scanning and logging activities across the board.
