MathForge.net--Power Tools for Online Mathematics

Description

The Pittsburgh Supercomputing Center (PSC) is well-known for its cutting-edge research and its ability to transform new technologies into useful scientific tools. Within the past year, PSC's new Cray XT3 supercomputer has been used for some exciting new work and has proved to be one of the most powerful computational resources on the TeraGrid.

HPCwire recently got the opportunity to talk with the two PSC scientific co-directors, Michael Levine and Ralph Roskies, and ask them about new developments at PSC and about what's in store for the center's future. In part one of this two-part interview, Roskies and Levine discuss the significance of PSC's Cray XT3 supercomputer.

HPCwire: PSC's 10-teraflop Cray XT3, which became a production resource on the TeraGrid last October, was the first Cray XT3 anywhere and is the only one available to NSF researchers. What led you to decide on this system and what advantages does it have as a resource for computational science?
