Building the Future of Advanced Computing in the U.S.
The National Science Foundation (NSF) and TACC have embarked on an ambitious mission to bring the fastest, most powerful, advanced computing capabilities to U.S. researchers.
The Leadership-Class Computing Facility, or LCCF, will launch a new era of computational discovery, including a system that can produce 10x more science than Frontera, and partnerships with leading HPC organizations across the nation.
The LCCF is expected to support thousands of leading computational scientists when it launches in late 2025. The system will be hosted at a Switch commercial data center on the Round Rock campus.
As part of the project, the LCCF will partner with four Distributed Science Centers — the National Center for Supercomputing Applications, Pittsburgh Supercomputing Center, San Diego Supercomputer Center, and the Atlanta University Center Data Science Initiative — that will provide unique expertise and expand support for researchers across scientific domains.
