The Aberdeen Proving Ground (APG) Centennial Gala, held Friday, October 20, in Aberdeen was the culminating event of a year-long celebration of APG’s 100th Anniversary. Approximately 780 people attended the Cabaret-themed event, which featured live music, a casino, dancing, comedy, fireworks, acrobats and other performers, and an After-Party at the Speakeasy. Merritt Property, which manages the Aberdeen Corporate Park on route 22 next to the Target store, donated the use of the 90,000-square foot building for the event. U.S. Congressman Dutch Ruppersberger, MG Randy Taylor, local and state elected officials, and senior Army officials were in attendance, as were hundreds of members of the Harford and Cecil County communities.
The Gala was hosted by the APG Centennial Celebration Association, which is working to establish the APG Discovery Center in Aberdeen. This facility will house an interactive STEM educational space for learners of all ages to experience science and technology through hands-on exhibits and demonstrations.
During 2017, the APG community hosted over 150 events during 2017 to commemorative APG’s 100-year history. The Live Fire, the APG Memorial dedication, the Rosie the Riveters movie, exhibits at the college and libraries, historical talks and presentations, and Science Cafes.
Bravura Information Technologies was the presenting sponsor of the event. Additional funding was provided by Harford County Office of Economic Development, APG Federal Credit Union, SURVICE Engineering, Harford Community College, AFCEA, IRA, Association of Old Crows, Tenax Technologies, Northeastern Maryland Technology Council, Veteran Corps of America, Profile Partners, Leidos, Cray Supercomputers, CACI, ManTech, Jacobs, Adams Communication, Booz Allen, Camber, Jones Junction Greater Harford Committee, Signatech, Cecil College and many more businesses.
CLIMATE MODELS CREATED BY SUPERCOMPUTERS TO SHARPEN PREDICTIVE CAPABILITIES AT LOS ALAMOS NATIONAL LABORATORY.
THE IMAGE SHOWS THE SIMULATED SPEED OF THE ANTARCTIC ICE SHEET ACROSS THE CONTINENT USING THE MODEL FOR PREDICTION ACROSS-SCALES- LAND ICE. SHOW-MOVING ICE (BLUE AND GREEN) FROM THE INTERIOR OF THE ICE SHEET FEEDS FAST-MOVING(YELLOW AND ORANGE) ICE STREAMS AND ICE SHELVES THAT RING THE MARGINS OF ANTARCTICA. THESE MARGINAL REGIONS RESTAIN THE VAST BODY OF ICE BEHIND THEM BUT ARE SUSCEPTIBLE TO SPEED UP AND DESTABILIZATION THROUGH MELTING CAUSED BY THE OCEAN BELOW AND ATMOSPHERE ABOVE.

34 million computing hours a year. That's the processing power of the powerful high-performing supercomputer that was inaugurated on September 24 in Trieste, as an anticipation of Trieste Next. The project was developed by SISSA within an agreement with ICTP, and the machine is housed at the “old” SISSA headquarters in via Beirut 2-4. The inauguration provides an occasion to illustrate some applications of supercomputing in industry and science, and to present the new Master's in High Performance Computing, MHPC.
Blues, the Laboratory Computing Resource Center's Appro Xtreme-X supercomputer, has a peak performance of 107 teraflops.

ROADRUNNER SUPERCOMPUTER AT LOS ALAMOS NATIONAL LABORATORY.
THE ROADRUNNER IS THE WORLD'S FIRST SUPERCOMPUTER TO ACHIEVE SUSTAINED OPERATING PERFORMANCE SPEEDS OF ONE PETAFLOP/S. OPERATING AT PETAFLOP/S PERFORMANCE MEANS THE MACHINE CAN PROCESS A MILLION BILLION CALCULATIONS EACH SECOND. IN PARTNERSHIP WITH LOS ALAMOS AND THE NATIONAL NUCLEAR SECURITY ADMINISTRATION, ROADRUNNER WAS BUILT BY IBM AND WILL BE HOUSED AT LANL, WHERE IT WILL BE USED TO PERFORM CALCULATIONS THAT WILL VASTLY IMPROVE THE NATION'S ABILITY TO CERTIFY THAT THE UNITED STATES NUCLEAR WEAPONS STOCKPILE IS RELIABLE WITHOUT CONDUCTING UNDERGROUND NUCLEAR TESTS. IT WILL ALSO BE USED TO SCIENCE AND ENGINEERING SUCH AS ENERGY RESEARCH, UNDERSTANDING COMPLEX NEURAL AND BIOLOGICAL SYSTEMS, AND BIOMEDICAL APPLICATIONS. ROADRUNNER WAS BUILT USING COMMERCIALLY AVAILABLE HARDWARE, INCLUDING ASPECTS OF COMMERICAL GAME CONSOLE TECHNOLOGIES.

WebTheme(TM) makes searching beautiful. WebTheme is an interactive new computer tool that provides a visual display of the common themes in collections of web-based documents, helping the user explore and understand large amounts of data with minimal reading. In this view, peaks denote collections of relevant Web sites; the distance between them indicates how closely the subjects are related, and zooming in creates a new map centered on one set of results.

Breaking new ground for scientific computing, two teams of Department of Energy (DOE) scientists in November 2012 exceeded a sustained performance level of 10 petaflops (quadrillion floating point operations per second) on the Sequoia supercomputer at the National Nuclear Security Administration’s (NNSA) Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL).
Though the construction of the Theory and Computer Sciences Building was announced in 2007, to me the interior feels very much like '60s brutalist construction. Which is not a critique at all; I'm rather fond of that style.
I love the concrete and sharp geometries here, along with the sand garden filling the inner courtyard spaces. The repeated vertical and horizontal lines help make the inside feel very modern, in keeping with the buildings purpose.
It houses Argonne's Blue Gene/Q supercomputer, among other things.
A view down the middle of a boron nitride nanotube.
A team led by Vincent Crespi, associate professor of physics, has simulated carbon nanotubes that are smaller and stronger than any other nanotube. Using supercomputers in California, Michigan and Texas to model the electronic states and total energies of various carbon molecules, Crespi and his colleagues discovered a tetrahedral carbon atom that creates tight and stable bonds to form tiny tubes only six atoms across, the smallest diameter theoretically possible. Crespi believes they may prove very useful in nanotechnology applications. (Year of image: 1997)

Sequoia, an IBM supercomputer at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory in California, was on June 18, 2012 named No. 1 on the TOP500, a list of the world's fastest supercomputers. Sequoia -- part of IBM's BlueGene/Q line and based on the company's POWER architecture -- runs at more than 16 petaflops (or more than 16 quadrillion calculations a second). Lab and IBM Research leaders here mark a collaboration that has produced six of the most powerful supercomputers in the world over 14 years.
