To reflect NERSC's mission to support scientific research, the center names its major systems after scientists. The center is located in Shyh Wang Hall, one of the nation's most energy-efficient supercomputer facilities.<ref>{{cite web | url=https://cs.lbl.gov/news-media/news/2020/less-is-more-lbnl-breaks-new-ground-in-data-center-optimization/ | title=Less is More: LBNL Breaks New Ground in Data Center Optimization }}</ref> The building was financed by the [[University of California]] which manages Berkeley Lab for the [[United States Department of Energy|U.S. Department of Energy (DOE)]]. The utility infrastructure and computer systems are provided by DOE.
The newest supercomputer [[Perlmutter (supercomputer)|Perlmutter]], is named in honor of [[Saul Perlmutter]], an astrophysicist at Berkeley Lab who shared the 2011 [[Nobel Prize in Physics]] for his contributions to research showing that the expansion of the universe is accelerating. It is a [[Cray]] system based on the Shasta architecture, with [[Zen 3]] based [[Epyc|AMD Epyc]] [[Central processing unit|CPUs]] ("Milan") and [[Ampere (microarchitecture)|NVIDIA Ampere]] [[Graphics processing unit|GPUs]].<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.nersc.gov/systems/perlmutter/|title = Perlmutter}}</ref>
