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.
Auburn’s School of Forestry and Wildlife Sciences has launched a new degree in geospatial and environmental informatics, or GSEI. The university’s supercomputer will help researchers to run past, present and future climate simulations, analyze very large data sets and manipulate global satellite data and imagery. Pictured, from left, are Assistant Professors Sanjiv Kumar and Susan Pan and Research Associate Jia Yang, who are shown studying climate model outputs from Auburn’s supercomputer.
Year 3010 ...
"Since 2010, Terra began an era of modernization. Wars have stopped, people started to be more understanding and technology has evolved considerably. New technologies, new engines, new chips, new supercomputers but the same energy source . Therefore hazardous emissions and harmful gas emissions have destroyed vegetation. There is only one season: summer. cities are overcrowded and congested roads. Giving up cars people replace them with mechas spaceships. Pedestrian areas are becoming more narrow. The buildings continue to grow vertically. Life is prospering, but is supported by huge generators that produce the oxygen needed for living. People began to understand finally about the environment and try, as much as possible to walk and use less energy. The year 3010 started well, people realizing that not everything is lost and that there can be done something. "

Large-scale computational investigation aiming at better understanding how the cerebrospinal fluid streams through the subarachnoid space of the optic nerve. Impaired flow is a determining factor to different pathologies, including papilledema and glaucoma. To better understand the flow structure, the optic nerve region was removed from the picture. Since the Reynolds number is very small, the flow can be visualized with streamlines, which are coloured logarithmically according to their velocity magnitude. The flow-structure interaction is solved with a pseudo-spectral solver and the use of the Helvetios supercomputer at EPFL. Cerebrospinal fluid is the region depicted in green.

Comparing cultural variation between two Manga titles - book level.
Each visualization shows 62172 Manga books.
Each book represented as a point.
---------------------------------------------
To create visualizations, we measured each page separately on NERSC supercomputers and plotted the results by averaging values for all pages belonging to each book:
X axis - brightness mean
Y axis - entropy
---------------------------------------------
In the middle graph, red points are books from "Captain Tsubasa" (artist: Takahashi Yoichi)
The graph on the right, red points are books from "Anatolia Story (artist: Chie Shinohara)
---------------------------------------------
These visualizations demonstrate how cultural analytics allows to analyze and map variability of cultural artifacts (in this case, stylistic variability). The books belonging to Captain Tsubasa have less visual variability than the books of Anatolia Story. Additionally, their distributions have different shapes. While the books of the former all cluster together, the books of the latter form two distinct clusters.
A gift of $34 million from Dr. Dwight Diercks ’90 and his wife Dian, the MSOE Dwight and Dian Diercks Computational Science Hall will provide research and learning opportunities in artificial intelligence (AI), deep learning, cyber security, robotics, cloud computing, and other technologies essential to what is called the "fourth industrial revolution." The facility will feature a data center with an NVIDIA GPU-powered AI supercomputer.

This was one of the first "super computers" ever built (for the geek in all of you). The Science Museum of London had all this cool geek/ science stuff which was awesome. Nina wasn't too impressed. ;-)

The U.S. Department of Energy’s Oak Ridge National Laboratory unveiled Summit as the world’s most powerful and smartest scientific supercomputer on June 8, 2018.
With a peak performance of 200,000 trillion calculations per second-or 200 petaflops, Summit will be eight times more powerful than ORNL’s previous top-ranked system, Titan. For certain scientific applications, Summits will also be capable of more than three billion mixed precision calculations per second, or 3.3 exaops. Summit will provide unprecedented computing power for research in energy, advanced materials and artificial intelligence (AI), among other domains, enabling scientific discoveries that were previously impractical or impossible.

Japan's Fugaku supercomputer, built with government backing and used in the fight against coronavirus, is now ranked as the world's fastest, its developers announced Monday.
It snatched the top spot on the Top500, a site that has tracked the evolution of computer processing power for more than two decades, said the Riken scientific research center.
The list is produced twice a year and rates supercomputers based on speed in a benchmark test set by experts from Germany and the US.
Fugaku was jointly developed by Riken and the firm Fujitsu and has a speed of roughly 415.53 petaflops -- 2.8 times faster than the second-ranked US Summit supercomputer's 148.6 petaflops.
A supercomputer is more than 1,000 times faster than a regular computer, according to Riken.
Summit had topped the last four rankings over the previous two years.
Fugaku, meaning Mount Fuji in Japanese, has been under development for six years and is expected to start full-time operation from April 2021.
But it is already being put to work on the coronavirus crisis, running simulations on how droplets would spread on office spaces with partitions installed or packed trains with windows open.
"I hope that the leading-edge IT developed for it will contribute to major advances on difficult social challenges such as COVID-19," Satoshi Matsuoka, the head of Riken's Center for Computational Science, said in a statement.
Fugaku has also topped several other supercomputer performance rankings, becoming the first to simultaneously sit atop the Graph500, HPCG, and HPL-AI lists.
Supercomputers are vital tools for advanced scientific work because of their ability to perform rapid calculations for everything from weather forecasts to missile development.
A Riken-developed forerunner to the Fugaku has held the title of world's fastest supercomputer, but in recent years the race to develop the powerful machines has been dominated by the US and China.
