NERSC Delivers One Million T3E CPU-Hours to Scientific UsersOn Thursday, Oct. 23, 1997, NERSC passed a milestone of delivering 1,000,000 parallel computing CPU-hours to the scientific community. The records of all parallel computation performed on the prototype T3E-600 from late January to early September 1997, and on the full configuration 512-processor T3E-900 from late July to Oct. 23 indicate that Grand Challenge users received 425,000 parallel computing hours, while the remaining 575,000 hours were used by more than 100 other research groups."Not only does this demonstrate NERSC's value to the Energy Research community, it also demonstrates our leadership in moving MPP technology into a production environment," said NERSC Division Director Horst Simon. "As a matter or course, we're now delivering about 50,000 CPU-hours a week to our research community."
