The Argonne National Laboratory is seeking information from various stakeholders, including academia, industry, and non-profit organizations, regarding opportunities to participate in the development and use of a National Genesis Mission Supercomputing Center of Innovation. The center will include AI supercomputing resources and be located on Argonne property. The laboratory is interested in receiving input on two focus areas: computing and infrastructure capabilities, and use, co-funding, and partnership interest. The goal is to establish a national resource that can support research, development, demonstration, and mission-focused applications through public-private collaboration.
Some key points to consider include:
• The center will include AI supercomputing resources and be located on Argonne property.
• The laboratory is seeking input on opportunities for organizations to provide equipment, software, services, test beds, infrastructure elements, or other capabilities that support the initial deployment and future phases of the center.
• The laboratory is also seeking input on use, co-funding, and partnership interest, including models for access, collaboration, governance, and cost-sharing.
• The center is expected to be the world's largest AI computing resource dedicated to advancing science, engineering, and medicine.
• The laboratory is interested in receiving input on how the center can support near-term R&D needs of the U.S. government, universities, and industry, while establishing a foundation for future phases and broader user engagement.
