Results of this team's simulations compare well with actual results of the terrorist attack against the U.S. Air Force-occupied Khobar Towers in Dhahran, Saudi Arabia. Current results show oceanic fronts and meandering ocean currents in a high-resolution model. Sea surface height observed by satellite altimetry is the most important oceanic data type for operational global ocean prediction This kind of prediction capability will greatly enhance the understanding of sea states, making travel for ships and submarines safer. Development of an advanced modeling technique for performing realistic submunitions simulations helped identify and correct design problems early. Space is the ultimate high ground for U.S. defense.
Space satellites provide navigation, precision guidance, communications and related capabilities.
Advantages of HPC In the HPC environment, predictions and test configurations occur on a scale and to a degree that were unavailable before now. Solutions to complex problems requiring computational intricacies can be discovered without spending a fortune. CSC s HPC work addresses the difficulty organizations have in determining the capacity and degree of computer resources required to stay current with exploding technology issues, analytical tools and data sets. Strengthened HPC Offerings CSC's HPC offerings leverage the experience gained in our recent merger with Nichols Research addressing the HPC outsourcing trend in the government market. When Nichols supported DoD in creating the largest simulated battle ever undertaken, it involved modeling over 100,000 units in a combat situation.
