  3. About Oak Ridge National Laboratory

    Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) is a multiprogram science and technology national laboratory managed for the United States Department of Energy by UT-Battelle, a limited liability partnership between the University of Tennessee and Battelle Memorial Institute. ORNL is located in Oak Ridge, Tennessee, near Knoxville. Scientists and engineers at ORNL conduct basic and applied research and development to create scientific knowledge and technological solutions that build the nation's expertise in key areas of science; increase the availability of clean, abundant energy; restore and protect the natural environment; and contribute to national security.

    ORNL also performs other work for the Department of Energy, including isotope production, information management, and technical program management, and provides research and technical assistance to other organizations.

      Do SuperComputers Turn a Green Data Center Gray? By Doug Maloney Green data center technology and supercomputing aren't two things that go well together, and there's a reason why. Faster computational performance in a densely packed space requires the hottest – literally – CPUs available packed very close together. All that heat requires somewhere to go, which requires cooling and more dollars to the power bill. Exhibit A for this is IBM's Blue Waters supercomputer being built at the University ...
