A team of researchers from the University of Southern California, the Renaissance Computing Institute at the University of North Carolina, and Oak Ridge, Lawrence Berkeley and Argonne National Laboratories have received a grant from the U.S. Department of Energy to develop the fundamentals of a computational platform that is fault tolerant, robust to various environmental conditions and adaptive to workloads and resource availability.
Despite its futuristic essence, artificial intelligence has a history that can be traced through several decades, and the ORNL has played a major role. From helping to drive fundamental and applied AI research from the field’s early days focused on expert systems, computer programs that rely on AI, to more recent developments in deep learning, a form of AI that enables machines to make evidence-based decisions, the lab’s AI research spans the spectrum.
A team of computational scientists at ORNL has generated and released datasets of unprecedented scale that provide the ultraviolet visible spectral properties of over 10 million organic molecules.
Research performed by a team, including scientists from ORNL and Argonne National Laboratory, has resulted in a Best Paper Award at the 19th IEEE International Conference on eScience.
Nuclear engineering students from the United States Military Academy and United States Naval Academy are working with researchers at ORNL to complete design concepts for a nuclear propulsion rocket to go to space in 2027 as part of the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency DRACO program.
How do you get water to float in midair? With a WAND2, of course. But it’s hardly magic. In fact, it’s a scientific device used by scientists to study matter.
The world’s first exascale supercomputer will help scientists peer into the future of global climate change and open a window into weather patterns that could affect the world a generation from now.
ORNL’s Luiz Leal of the Department of Energy’s Oak Ridge National Laboratory is the recipient of the 2023 Seaborg Medal from the American Nuclear Society.
Anne Campbell, a researcher at ORNL, recently won the Young Leaders Professional Development Award from the Minerals, Metals & Materials Society, or TMS, and has been chosen as the first recipient of the Young Leaders International Scholar Program award from TMS and the Korean Institute of Metals and Materials, or KIM.
Michael McGuire’s recognition as the Oak Ridge National Laboratory's top scientist headlined the annual awards. ORNL Director Stephen Streiffer also presented Director’s Awards to two teams, for operational performance and continuous improvement, and to the night’s science communicator awardee
