PHY Colloquium
Abstract: The Argonne Leadership Computing Facility (ALCF) is currently in the midst of installing its exascale supercomputer, Aurora. To prepare for Aurora and exascale, a new system, named Polaris, was just installed and accepted. In this talk I will explain the history behind Polaris and its ties to Aurora, what Polaris is, and initial plans for enabling science on it to prepare for exascale.
