To support the development of a revolutionary new open fan engine architecture for the future of flight, GE Aerospace has run simulations using the worldâs fastest supercomputer capable of crunching data in excess of exascale speed, or more than a quintillion calculations per second.

In a discovery aimed at accelerating the development of process-advantaged crops for jet biofuels, scientists at ORNL developed a capability to insert multiple genes into plants in a single step.

ORNLâs Debangshu Mukherjee has been named an npj Computational Materials âReviewer of the Year.â

When reading the novel Jurassic Park as a teenager, Jerry Parks found the passages about gene sequencing and supercomputers fascinating, but never imagined he might someday pursue such futuristic-sounding science.

A study led by researchers at ORNL could uncover new ways to produce more powerful, longer-lasting batteries and memory devices.

The Oak Ridge Leadership Computing Facilityâs Matt Sieger has been named the project director for the OLCF-6 effort. This next OLCF undertaking will plan and build a world-class successor to the OLCFâs still-new exascale system, Frontier.
