INCITE Program Doles Out Hours on Supercomputers

The INCITE (Innovative and Novel Computational Impact on Theory and Experiment) program made its first awards in 2004, it has provided more than 10 billion processing hours on the Department’s fastest supercomputers to scientists across the globe taking on the field’s most difficult challenges. This year some 4.7 billion processing hours were awarded to 61 science and engineering projects with a high potential to accelerate innovation and discovery on two of the Department of Energy’s newest and most powerful supercomputers, Argonne National Lab’s Mira, a 10-petaflop IBM Blue Gene/Q system, and Oak Ridge’s Titan, a new 20-petaflop Cray XK7 hybrid system.
