ORNL's Cross-Cutting Science Agenda
Strengthening ORNL’s leadership position in computing and the computational sciences is at the core of ORNL’s Computing and Computational Sciences Directorate mission (http://computing.ornl.gov and www.jics.utk.edu/index.html).
Measures of success are breakthrough contributions in science and engineering with broad impacts to U.S. scientific leadership and national security.
Dramatic advances in the power and performance of computing resources, networks, and data-storage facilities are opening new pathways to the modeling and simulation of physical, chemical, and biological systems and providing new insights into a host of complex science and engineering problems in climate change impacts, biomass supply chain, energy assurance, and knowledge discovery.
