Seager was selected because of "the difference [he] made in the way agencies, companies and government officials develop, acquire, manage and use information technology." The nomination was submitted by industry collaborators for Seager's leadership of the Hyperion Project, a collaboration with 10 industry leaders to advance next-generation Linux high-performance computing clusters.
"Hyperion represents a new way of doing business. Collectively we are building a system none of us could have built individually," Seager said when the project was announced at SC08 last November.
