U.S. Navy Relies on SGI and Platform LSF to Execute Complex Weather Prediction Models
Overview FNMOC is recognized internationally as one of the world's premier Numerical Weather Prediction centers. To support U.S. Naval operations, FNMOC needed to provide quicker, more accurate and more detailed information and maps predicting weather and ocean conditions. The challenge was to implement a new high performance computing environment that can execute complex weather prediction models, easily scale up to handle larger volumes of data and increasingly sophisticated models, and comply with stringent security requirements. FNMOC relies on high performance SGI Origin 3000 Series supercomputers running SGI's Trusted IRIX secure operating system, along with efficient and reliable job scheduling and workload management provided by Platform LSF software.
