Congratulations to Team Cascadia (featuring CRESCENT-affiliated Dr. Alice-Agnes Gabriel) who've been awarded the prestigious Gordon Bell Prize in high-performance computing for their billion-parameter Cascadia Subduction Zone tsunami model using the world’s fastest supercomputer, El Capitan!
It still feels so unreal! Yesterday, we were awarded the "Nobel Prize" of Supercomputing, the ACM Gordon Bell Prize at #SC25 for our paper “Real-Time Bayesian Inference at Extreme Scale: A Digital Twin for Tsunami Early Warning Applied to the Cascadia Subduction Zone”: dl.acm.org/doi/full/10....

It was an unbelievable honor to win the 2025 ACM Gordon Bell Prize with #TeamCascadia last week! 🏆
This is the culmination of many years of work by the #MFEM team and just one example of the power that GPU-accelerated high-order finite elements can bring to #HPC applications 🙌
