The new TOP500 list includes two Intel-based clusters ranked in the top ten. Newly added Intel-based clusters on the TOP500 list include Lawrence Livermore National Labs at No. 5, the National Oceanic & Atmospheric Association (NOAA) Forecast System Laboratory at No. 8, Louisiana State University at No. 17 and Pacific Northwest National Laboratory at No. 61. "Moore's Law has pushed the performance of Intel-based computing platforms to the forefront of scientific and business innovation. These platforms, based on cost-effective Intel processors and commercial off the shelf networking technologies, have radically changed grid and HPC deployments," said Tom Gibbs, director of industry solutions at Intel. "By combining highly scalable performance and affordable prices, Intel is helping to hasten discoveries and innovation through worldwide grid computing initiatives in areas such as life sciences, bioinformatics, weather predictions, financial modeling and energy."
