ASCR has several open Funding Opportunity Announcements and a Call for Proposals for large scale allocations of computing time on the Leadership Computing Facilities (INCITE proposals). Funding is available in Applied Mathematics, Computer Science, and SciDAC. For more information, please follow THIS LINK.

The Energy Sciences Network (ESnet 4) is an Excellence.Gov Award winner for enhancing government transparency. The winners were announced in Washington, D.C. on April 14, 2009 and ESnet 4 won in the category of “application of technology”.  The Excellence.Gov Awards Program was established by the American Council for Technology/Industry Advisory Council to recognize the best practices in the federal government’s management and use of information technology.

Supercomputers, incredibly large data sets, high-performance networking, disperse locations, collaboration.  Collaboration is critical to science and the ability to move and share data is essential to scientific collaboration.  With the installation and deployment of new dedicated data transfer nodes at NERSC and The Oak Ridge Leadership Computing Facility (OLCF) linked by ESnet, extremely large data sets can be moved between each facility’s mass storage systems with incredible transfer rates helping provide the ability to perform cutting-edge research.

DOE’s Oak Ridge Leadership Computing Facility is home to the world’s first petaflop supercomputer dedicated to open scientific research. The new petaflops machine will make it possible to address some of the most challenging scientific problems in areas such as climate modeling, renewable energy, materials science, fusion and combustion.  Annually, 80 percent of Jaguar's resources are allocated through DOE's Innovative and Novel Computational Impact on Theory and Experiment (INCITE) program, a competitively selected, peer reviewed process open to researchers from universities, industry, government and non-profit organizations.
