M45 has about three terabytes (trillion bytes) of memory, 1.5 petabytes (quadrillion) of disk space and a peak performance of more than 27 trillion calculations per second (27 teraflops), placing it among the world's top 50 fastest supercomputers. In addition to tapping M45 to process and analyze data sets, computer scientists will also use its considerable resources to improve the cluster itself. There are a number of areas of distributed computing that could be improved: Among them, the ability to schedule different workloads on the same network, monitor the cluster's performance, recover quickly if a node within the cluster fails, and balance the high input/output (I/O) demands across the entire cluster.
