Yesterday I went on a special tour of BlueGene/L and Purple, which are the fastest and third fastest supercomputers in the world. I saw several others as well. These are classified computers, so I was lucky to be able to see them because they are in a high security facility. They are amazing – BlueGene/L has 131,072 processors!

Turned in my Masters Thesis. It feels good to be done!!
