Supercomputing In the Media: National Geographic

Kudos to Sandian Dr. Jackie Chen, whose work on exascale computing systems was recently featured in the National Geographic’s ‘Daily News’ section. Entitled “Supercomputing Power Could Pave the Way to Energy-Efficient Engines,” the news article focused on how the world’s most powerful supercomputers provide critical knowledge to spur the design of more fuel-efficient cars.  

Multi-disciplinary Research at Work: Combustion Exascale Co-Design Center Established

Combustion research has never been timelier; in an era when resources are limited, energy costs are rising, and environmental concerns demand consideration, top researchers must find new ways to maximize efficiency while minimizing costs. Combustion accounts for roughly 85% of the total energy used in the U.S.–developing technologies to improve combustion efficiency necessitates a deeper…
