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.
Legacy
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
El Capitan verified as world's fastest supercomputer
Verified at 1.742 exaflops (1.742 quintillion calculations per second) on the High Performance Linpack—the standard benchmark used by the Top500 organization to evaluate supercomputing performance—El Capitan is the fastest computing system ever benchmarked.
LLNL and Oxide work together to advance cloud and HPC convergence
Oxide Cloud Computer installation at Livermore Computing's HPC center modernizes on-premises cloud computing capabilities for general purpose workloads.
