The OLCF is home to Titan, the world’s most powerful supercomputer for
open science with a theoretical peak performance exceeding 20 petaflops
(quadrillion calculations per second). That kind of computational
capability—almost unimaginable—is on par with each of the world’s 7
billion people being able to carry out 3 million calculations per
second. Image courtesy Oak Ridge National Laboratory
