Workhorse Conte Cluster at Purdue goes to Pasture

Over at Purdue, Adrienne Miller writes that the university's powerful Conte supercomputer, which retired on August 1 after five years of service, was crucial to the development of powerful nanotechnology tools. "Conte was simply essential for all this development," says Tillmann Kubis, a research assistant professor of electrical and computer engineering who led the development of the most recent iteration of the tool, known as NEMO5. "The software, which consists of more than 700,000 lines of code, has been commercialized through a partnership with Silvaco, Inc. Kubis estimates that more than 80 percent of NEMO5 was developed on Conte."
