DoD Buys Five Linux Supercomputers
Frank Tiboni writes on FCW.com:
Linux Networx announced Feb. 13 that the Defense Department has purchased five of its supercomputers — the largest order in the company’s history.
The procurement under DOD’s Technology Insertion 2006 program includes three Advanced Technology Clusters supercomputers for the Army Research Laboratory (ARL) Major Shared Research Center and two LS-1 supersystems for the ARL and the service’s Dugway Proving Ground, Utah. The buy increases the ARL Major Shared Resource Center’s computing capability to more than 80 trillion floating-point operations, according to a Linux Networx statement.
