The National Science Foundation (NSF) has awarded the National Institute for Computational Sciences (NICS) $3 million to continue to provide advanced computing resources for researchers in science and engineering across the country through July 2016. This extension brings the total award for the Kraken project to more than $84.5 million since its inception in 2007. “We are very happy to be able to provide our resources and, most important, expertise to the national NSF community,” said Tony Mezzacappa, director of the Joint Institute for Computational Sciences (JICS), of which NICS is a part. “Since the inception of NICS, our staff have served thousands of projects and users across all fields and have accumulated a wealth of experience that continues to prove invaluable to both seasoned and new computational scientists and engineers.” To read more, please visit https://www.nics.tennessee.edu/kraken-extension.
