ALCF
Argonne’s Leadership Computing Facility (ALCF) will install Mira, a next generation Blue Gene system (BG/Q), in 2012. The ALCF’s stated requirements for the 10 petaflops system include approximately 0.75 million cores and 0.75 petabytes of memory, with 16 cores and 16 gigabytes of memory per node.
