Capturing the wonder of the stars

ORNL’s Dr Bronson Messer explains how Frontier and the exascale era of supercomputing will transform our study of the cosmos, making it possible to simulate supernova explosions in a matter of weeks – and bring us closer to understanding our ultimate origins.

Capturing the power of the wind

GE Renewable Energy’s Engineering Exec for Advanced Technology and Sciences Joe Citeno explains why and how Frontier and exascale supercomputing can transform wind turbine technology – allowing engineers to design more efficient, reliable and powerful machines.

Capturing the wonder of global interconnectedness

Climate change is not just about climate modelling. It’s connected to everything from human health to vehicle technology to energy production. ORNL’s Dr Kate Evans explains how making connections between scientific areas will be the new “frontier” in problem solving.

Capturing the wonder of who we are

Berg Health’s Dr Niven Narain explains how the Frontier supercomputer and the power of exascale will help medicine bring data and AI together to understand who we are as individual patients at a level never before possible – and make a massive impact on human health.

”Frontier is ushering in a new era of exascale computing to solve the world’s biggest scientific challenges.”
