2009 INCITE CALL FOR PROPOSALS
For the sixth consecutive year, DOE's Office of Science is inviting proposals from scientists and engineers for the Innovative and Novel Computational Impact on Theory and Experiment (INCITE) program. Over half a billion processor-hours hours are expected to be awarded through the INCITE program in 2009. The INCITE program will award significant allocations on some of the world's most powerful supercomputers to innovative, large-scale computational science projects to enable high-impact advances. Scientists from the national and international research community will be able to request allocations on machines at Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL), Argonne National Laboratory (ANL), Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (LBNL), and Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL).

ARGONNE LEADERSHIP COMPUTING FACILITY DEDICATED
The Argonne Leadership Computing Facility (ALCF) was dedicated on April 21, 2008 in a ceremony attended by key federal, state and local officials including Congress-woman Judy Biggert and the Department's Under Secretary for Science Dr. Raymond L. Orbach (pictured right). DOE makes the computing power of the ALCF available to a highly select group of researchers at universities, labs, publicly and privately held research organizations, and a few industrial concerns in the United States and overseas. Major ALCF projects are chosen by DOE through a competitive peer review program known as Innovative and Novel Computational Impact on Theory and Experiment (INCITE).
