Supercomputing
As a leader in computing and networking, Ohio Supercomputer Center (OSC) is a resource for Ohio's scientists and engineers. OSC is a fully-scalable center with mid-range machines to match those found at the National Science Foundation centers and national labs. The Center's flagship supercomputing system is Glenn, an IBM e1350
system with more than 9,500 Opteron processor cores.
Ohio Supercomputer Center is also home to the Ohio Interface Laboratory, which provides state-of-the-art graphics equipment and output services
for computer graphics and animation. Members of the Science and Technology Support Group provide
much of the information for this server.
