National Energy Research Scientific Computing Center (NERSC) is a high-performance computing (HPC) center for scientific research

operated by Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (LBNL) for the U.S. Department of Energy (DoE) Office of Science User Facility.

Overview

NERSC has had a long-standing tradition of keeping the nomenclature of their supercomputers to world-class scientist.
