	Tennessee Is A Rising Star In Supercomputing > Tennessee Is A Rising Star In Supercomputing > May 18, 2004
		The reputation of Tennessee's Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) as a center of supercomputing is gaining recognition, not just because it received a $25 million grant from the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE), but also because the applications to be carried out there are open and public.
		The supercomputing projects at the Energy Department's more famous supercomputing labs--including Los Alamos National Laboratory, Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, and Sandia National Laboratories--are mostly secret.
		The relationship between the Oak Ridge Lab and the University of Tennessee is more than symbiotic: the university and Battelle Science and Technology International operate the Lab.

		A formal classification system needs generally to be predictive both of the ordering of terms that are used within it, and of the terms that will be allowed (or tolerated) by it.
		By contrast, a free tagging approach to classification is a jumbled, hit-and-miss affair, and any system that it may throw up must be discovered, or learned, after the event.
