IBM and Lawrence Livermore National Lab (LLNL) formed a collaboration to help industrial partners use high performance computing to boost their competitiveness in the global economy. IBM will make researchers available to work hand-in-hand with businesses and organizations on specific projects in such areas as improving our electric grid, advancing manufacturing, discovering new materials and leveraging Big Data.

This builds on the recent news that Sequoia, an IBM supercomputer at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory in California, was 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 20 petaflops peak (or more than 20 quadrillion calculations a second).

LLNL has purchased a smaller, five petaflop version of Sequoia from IBM as part of this new collaboration — called Deep Computing Solutions — to support unclassified, collaborative work with industry. Called Vulcan, this POWER-based system was ranked #48 on the Top500.
