View a video interview with John Towns, leader of the National Science Foundation's new Extreme Science and Engineering Discovery Environment (XSEDE) project, talking about the vision for XSEDE and how it will build on the TeraGrid. XSEDE is a follow-on project to the TeraGrid, an 11-year project, providing access primarily to high-performance computing (HPC) resources and services. The XSEDE project will expand that set of services to encompass much more than just HPC. XSEDE allows research scientists open access to the power of supercomputers, advanced computational tools, as well as digital resources and services.
