Gary M Jung posted on Feb 28, 2015 Working at the ALS generates huge amounts of data, and for many years this has caused users to have to carry hard drives and USB drives between the ALS and their home institutions for acquisition and analysis of experimental data. To avoid the physical … [Read more...] about IT and ESNet Help ALS Researchers Move their Big Data
Server Energy Efficiency and Performance Study presented at 2014 Data Center Efficiency Summit
Data centers consume approximately 2 percent of the nation’s electrical energy and roughly half of that is consumed by the IT equipment. Berkeley Lab EETD researcher and lead author Henry Coles and co-author, HPCS consultant Yong Qin from IT, recently published a paper where they evaluate server … [Read more...] about Server Energy Efficiency and Performance Study presented at 2014 Data Center Efficiency Summit

HPCS helps researchers set new Microscopy record at the ALS.
Gary M Jung posted on Sep 11, 2014 Researchers at the ALS used “soft” X-rays to image structures only five nanometers in size. This resolution is the highest ever achieved with X-ray microscopy and may have ushered in a new era for nanoscale imaging. Diffraction data is recorded by a high … [Read more...] about HPCS helps researchers set new Microscopy record at the ALS.

HPC Services demos GPU Accelerated Synchrotron Radiation Calculation at GTC 2013
Gary M Jung posted on Mar 18, 2013 An undulator is a periodic structure of magnets through which an electron bunch goes radiating synchrotron light towards the forward direction. It has been widely used at synchrotron light facilities, such as the Advanced Light Source (ALS, US), European … [Read more...] about HPC Services demos GPU Accelerated Synchrotron Radiation Calculation at GTC 2013
The Science of Clouds computed on Lawrencium
Gary M Jung posted on Mar 15, 2013 The climate models that scientists use to understand and project climate change are improving constantly, with better representations of the oceans, ice, land surfaces and other factors in the atmosphere. While there is still some degree of uncertainty in … [Read more...] about The Science of Clouds computed on Lawrencium
