Center for Nanoscale Materials (CNM) wanted to deliver the processing performance required to support world-class scientific research on nanoscale materials and minimize power consumption and cooling costs by creating a dense, high-performance computing cluster. The challenge was to adopt software tools to help accelerate development of customized scientific applications. The CNM team built a 1,152-core high-performance computing cluster with Quad-Core Intel Xeon processors plus motherboards developed by Intel, Supermicro, and SGI, delivering the extreme performance required with low power consumption and a small footprint.
