The '''[http://www.nersc.gov National Energy Research Scientific Computing Center]''', or '''NERSC''', is a high performance computing (supercomputer) user facility operated by [[Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory]] for the United States [[United States Department of Energy|Department of Energy]] [[Office of Science]]. As the mission computing center for the Office of Science, NERSC houses high performance computing and data systems used by 7,000 scientists at national laboratories and universities around the country. NERSC’s newest and largest supercomputer is Cori<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.nersc.gov/systems/cori/|title=Cori Cray XC40 2016|last=|first=|date=|website=www.nersc.gov|language=en|archive-url=|archive-date=|dead-url=|access-date=2017-03-23}}</ref>, which was ranked 5th on the [[TOP500]] list of world's fastest supercomputers in November 2016<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.top500.org/lists/2016/11/|title=November 2016 {{!}} TOP500 Supercomputer Sites|website=www.top500.org|language=en|access-date=2017-03-23}}</ref>. NERSC is located on the main Berkeley Lab campus in [[Berkeley, California]].
