Overview[]

The Accelerated Strategic Computing Initiative (ASCI) was established in 1996 by the U.S. Department of Energy. The goal of ASCI was to simulate the results of new weapons designs as well as the effects of aging on existing and new designs, all in the absence of additional data from underground nuclear tests. It has been superseded by the Advanced Simulation and Computing Program (ASC).
