As part of the 19th PRACE Call for Large-Scale Projects the Gauss Centre for Supercomputing (GCS) steering committee granted a total of more than 1 billion core hours to 17 research projects
Gemma Church explores applications at the forefront of HPC research
At ISC’17 DKRZ (L-440) presents its mission as a national HPC center - DKRZ provides high performance computers, high capacity data storage and management for German climate research. In Addition DKRZ’s specialists offer a range of services covering modeling and programming, from support in carrying out climate simulations, through parallelisation and optimisation of the simulation programs, to analysis and visualization of the simulation results.
The Gauss Centre for Supercomputing (GCS) has set a new record for the number of core hours awarded during the 17th call for large-scale proposals – the combined total for these projects was more than 2.1 billion core hours across the three GCS supercomputers.
The Gauss Centre for Supercomputing (GCS) has announced Professor Michael Resch has been named as the new chairman of the GCS Board of Directors.
Through the use of cutting-edge simulation, software engineers are developing innovative new wind energy technology and increasing the efficiency and durability of wind turbines. The drive to find sustainable energy sources is one of the most pressing concerns facing society.
Dame Sally Davies, the outgoing Chief Medical Officer for England, pulls no punches when it comes to the threat of antibiotic resistance. She has called for an ‘Extinction Rebellion-type’ response to it, describing it as ‘catastrophic’ and ‘as dangerous as climate change’.
The Pistoia Alliance has been pioneering initiatives that will support organisations as they work to enable and engage Fair (findable, accessible, interoperable, reusable) principles of data management and stewardship in their organisations.
Achronix and Bittware collaborate on a new FPGA designed for cloud, AI and machine learning applications, writes Robert Roe
By increasing the energy efficiency of a supercomputer scientists can save huge amounts of money over the total lifecycle of the system. With ever-increasing core counts and increasingly large supercomputers, the drive for increased computational power comes at a cost.
