Decision to choose Blue Gene is Supported by
Applications community has reacted positively and some applications are
doing extremely well
– For those applications that can make the transition, the BG platform
provides outstanding scientific opportunity
Blue Gene has been remarkably reliable at scale
– The overall reliability/TF appears to be at least an order of magnitude
better than other platforms for which we have data
Power consumption is 2x better than other platforms
– Lower cost of ownership and window to the future of lower power
System Cost
– The cost of deploying a balanced system is lower than other platforms

Modeling of Protofibril Structures Provides Insightinto Molecular Basis of Parkinson’s DiseaseIgor Tsigelny, PI, U. California - San Diego
Parkinson’s Disease is the 2nd most
common adult neurological disease
Increased aggregation of alpha-
synuclein protein is thought to lead to
harmful pore-like structures in human
membranes
UCSD - SDSC team used molecular
modeling and molecular dynamics
simulations in combination with
biochemical and ultrastructural
analysis to show that alpha-synuclein
can lead to the formation of pore-like
structures on membranes
Used NAMD and MAPAS on Blue
Gene/L at ALCF and SDSC
