About us
The Argonne Leadership Computing Facility (ALCF) provides supercomputing and AI resources to the scientific and engineering community to accelerate the pace of discovery and innovation across a broad range of disciplines. The ALCF is a U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Office of Science user facility at Argonne National Laboratory. ALCF computing systems and expertise—available to researchers from academia, industry, and government agencies—support large-scale computing projects aimed at solving some of the world’s most complex and challenging scientific problems. As a key player in the nation’s efforts to provide the most advanced computing resources for science, the ALCF is helping to chart new directions in scientific computing through a convergence of simulation, data science, and AI methods and capabilities. Supported by DOE's Advanced Scientific Computing Research (ASCR) program, the ALCF is one of two DOE Leadership Computing Facilities in the nation dedicated to open science.

Ready to take your HPC skills to the next level? Apply for the Argonne Training Program on Extreme-Scale Computing (ATPESC) by March 5, 2025! This immersive two-week program, hosted by Argonne National Laboratory, helps participants gain essential HPC skills and expertise, build valuable connections, and open doors to new career opportunities. As Max Katz, a 2013 attendee, put it: "Going to a program like ATPESC allows you to meet all these people who are doing similar things from such different research backgrounds... ATPESC is one of the first places that made me realize how many different kinds of career paths there are in HPC." - For program and application details, visit: https://lnkd.in/ekp85fd - Read how Katz and other past attendees have benefited from the program: https://lnkd.in/guz9iwEh
