Indiana University's "Big Red" supercomputer is again ranked among the world's fastest, according to a report in UITS Information Technology News.
IU accomplishments in advanced cyberinfrastructure are attracting attention and acclaim at the International Supercomputer Conference held last week in Dresden, Germany.
"Big Red" placed 30th on the June 2007 list of the world's 500 fastest supercomputers unveiled today at the conference, and Indiana University's Data Capacitor team, with partners from Technische Universitaet Dresden, demonstrated impressive performance on a distributed transatlantic Lustre file system designed to move large amounts of scientific data quickly and easily.
“Big Red is one of the most powerful supercomputers in existence in the world and it is the fastest ever in the history of the State of Indiana,” said Brad Wheeler, Indiana University chief information officer and dean of information technology at IU Bloomington.
