Big Design Win for AMD and the Government!

"“Our center is pleased to continue over twenty-five years of excellence in providing highly available supercomputers for the Department of Defense,” said Christine Cuicchi, Director of the Navy DSRC. “While the new supercomputer itself will be quite the workhorse, it is complemented by a host of additional tools and services that the Navy DSRC offers in support of DoD users’ research activities.

“Most people wouldn’t expect Mississippi to be one of the premier locations for large-scale supercomputing,” said Cuicchi, “but we are, and this new system will solidify our presence in the HPC community.”

Navy DSRC currently provides almost 12 petaflops of aggregate supercomputing capability to the Department of Defense. It is one of five DoD Supercomputing Resource Centers (DSRCs) in the DoD High Performance Computing Modernization Program (HPCMP), and is operated by NMOC on behalf of the DoD HPCMP."

I got lost in all the acronyms in the write-up so ... what does DOD do with a Cray Super Computer?
