In November 2010, NNSA announced that Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) has decommissioned Advanced Simulation and Computing (ASC) Program's Purple, the first supercomputer capable of producing the reliable three-dimensional simulations of nuclear weapons performance critical to NNSA's program to ensure the safety, security and effectiveness of the nuclear stockpile without having to conduct testing.
NNSA Director of Advanced Simulation and Computing Bob Meisner discusses the decommisioning milestone in this video.
