The overview paper [1] is a reminder of the pace of change in computing:
DARPA’s HPCS program was launched in 2002 with five teams, each led by a hardware vendor: Cray Inc., Hewlett-Packard, IBM, SGI, and Sun.
It also has one of the more amusing euphemisms I've heard in a while:
In 2003, the HPCS program transitioned to phase II, and a programmatic downselect occurred, enabling the Cray,
IBM, and Sun teams to pursue their proposed research plans.
