Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) is a federal research facility in Livermore, California, United States, founded by the University of California, Berkeley in 1952. A Federally Funded Research and Development Center (FFRDC), it is primarily funded by the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) and managed and operated by Lawrence Livermore National Security, LLC (LLNS), a partnership of the University of California, Bechtel, BWX Technologies, AECOM, and Battelle Memorial Institute in affiliation with the Texas A&M University System. In 2012, the laboratory had the synthetic chemical element livermorium named after it. From an LLNL web posting: Since 1952, when LLNL was created, Computation has been essential to R&D, science and technology, and operations. What do we do? Amazing computing in the interest of our nation. We're making the world safer by shaping the frontiers of HPC, data sciences, and computer science. Our programs are meeting our mission to sustain leading-edge discipline research, and deliver creative technologies and software solutions. We design, develop, and deploy HPC capabilities not only in support of Livermore's mission and program goals, such as the nation's Stockpile Stewardship Program, but to improve national security and advance U.S. economic competitiveness. We partner with industry, foreign governments, and others to drive technology advancements, and speed development of new applications. HPC powers scientific discovery. We're advancing the most complex modeling, simulation, and analysis as a peer to theory and experiment. Presumed First Edition, First printing thus.
