The Innovative and Novel Computational Impact on Theory and Experiment (INCITE) program, managed jointly by the DOE Office of Science and its two Leadership Computing Facilities at Argonne (ALCF) and Oak Ridge (OLCF), awards large allocations of exascale computing time to the most compute- and data-intensive scientific research projects in the United States. The program targets simulation, scienti

Large-scale compute-intensive and data-intensive scientific research — simulation, data analytics, and AI campaigns — awarded as node-hour allocations on the Aurora and Frontier exascale systems for CY2027.
