SiCortex was a supercomputer manufacturer founded in 2003 and headquartered in Maynard, Massachusetts. The company built and marketed a family of clusters of between 12 and 972 compute nodes, connected in a Kautz graph. Each node consists of six MIPS 64 processors. Message passing, via MPI, is the presumptive programming model. It closed in May 2009.
