The big memory "Blacklight" system at the Pittsburgh Supercomputer Center will be retired on Aug 15 to make way for the new "Bridges" supercomputer. "Built by HP, Bridges will feature multiple nodes with as much as 12 terabytes each of shared memory, equivalent to unifying the RAM in 1,536 high-end notebook computers. This will enable it to handle the largest memory-intensive problems in important research areas such as genome sequence assembly, machine learning and cybersecurity."
