Supercomputers' pit crews

Like the world's best pit crews, groups of highly trained scientists make sure everything works together at the supercomputers available through the Department of Energy's Office of Science. Like their NASCAR counterparts, these crews get the best possible performance from the custom-built supercomputers. Their machines are fast and powerful, but they aren't intuitive. Add to that the fact that researchers using the computers are racing against the clock, too – to get answers before their
