Dan Sulzbach · 1988
Access to high-performance computers is essential for scientists and engineers at universities and research institutions throughout the U.S. It provides them with the ability to use the most advanced computers for their work. This is vital in today's highly competitive world. Supercomputing offers scientists and engineers the opportunity to use computer models to simulate conditions difficult or impossible to create and measure in the laboratory. Supercomputers are tools of the imagination that enable researchers to use computational science to reach beyond the realm of theory and experimentation. Every researcher who requires supercomputer resources should have access to them.
