15. Kraken The second most powerful academic supercomputer.
Story Funded by The National   Science Foundation (NSF) - $65 million Developed by University of Tennessee, Knoxville (UTK)  Kraken will enhance the computational power of the  TeraGrid  : The world's largest, most powerful and  comprehensive distributed cyber-infrastructure for open scientific research.
Applications Astrophysicists - realistic simulations of galaxy evolution, and black hole mergers. Climate scientists - to predict extreme weather such as hurricanes and long-term climate change and the effects of pollution. Earth scientists -high-resolution simulations of the earth's interior Materials scientists - design materials with useful properties.
System Summery Component Description Hardware & Networking Architecture Cray XT4 (Linux Cluster) Peak FLOPs 166 TF # of Nodes # of Cores 4512 18048 Processor AMD64 2.33 GHz quad core 512KB L2 cache per processor 2MB unified L3 cache per node  Memory Per node (per core): 4 GB (1 GB) Type: DDR2 Total Memory: 18048 GB Network Interconnect Cray SeaStar - 3D Torus Parallel Filesystem Lustre (100 TB) Software Operating System Service nodes: SUSE Linux Compute Nodes: Compute  Node Linux (CNL)
 
Future Upgraded to more than 100,000 cores, or individual processors,  100 trillion bytes of memory and 32,300 trillion bytes of disk space. It will provide more than 700 million CPU hours per year and close to one petaflop of performance.
Thank You
