There is now a CONTENT FREEZE for Mercury while we switch to a new platform. It began on Friday, March 10 at 6pm and will end on Wednesday, March 15 at noon. No new content can be created during this time, but all material in the system as of the beginning of the freeze will be migrated to the new platform, including users and groups. Functionally the new site is identical to the old one. webteam@gatech.edu

David Bader (CompSci & Eng) and colleagues helped create a set of new benchmarks, called Graph500, to clock supercomputing speeds, but owners of some of the world’s fastest machines are balking at the new tests.
