Terascale Computing System (TCS)

Provides a multiteraflop computing system in support of science and engineering research in the United States. NSF bears special responsibility for this national program, which is available for use by the national computational community. The system will be fully available in winter 2001 and is balanced in terms of processor speed, memory, communications, and storage. It is a part of the portfolio of resources provided by the PACI Program, and supplements the capabilities that are available through the PACI partnerships.
