ESnet`s Petascale DTN project speeds up data transfers between leading HPC centers
(PHYSorg.com Technology)

The Department of Energy`s (DOE) Office of Science operates three of the world`s leading supercomputing centers, where massive data sets are routinely imported, analyzed, used to create simulations and exported to other sites. Fortunately, DOE also runs a networking facility, ESnet (short for Energy Sciences Network), the world`s fastest network for science, which is managed by Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory.
