Sandia National Laboratories has been selected as one of four institutions to develop new supercomputer prototype systems for the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA).
To meet the increasing advanced computing needs for the Department of Defense (DoD), DARPA launched the Ubiquitous High Performance Computing (UHPC) program.
The goal of the UHPC program is to overcome current limiting factors, such as power consumption and architectural and programming complexity, by developing entirely new computer architectures and programming models. The aim is to produce a more energy-efficient computer that delivers 100 to 1,000 times more performance and is easier to program than current systems.
“We are thrilled that our team at Sandia Labs was chosen for this important work,” said James Ang, manager for Scalable Computer Architectures at Sandia Labs. “We are interested in designing a high performance computing system that we will want to use to address our mission objectives, and we look forward to meeting this challenge.”
