Distributed memory cluster: This project aims to establish a new supercomputing facility. The NSW research community has used high performance computing (HPC) to achieve major breakthroughs across a diverse range of disciplines including astrophysics, bioinformatics, environmental science, information technology and engineering. As the use of HPC increases, the application-specific needs of the research community become more diverse, requiring greater flexibility as well as higher performance. The present facility is no longer internationally competitive, and is hampering progress in cutting edge research. The new cluster is designed to provide a greater than 10-fold increase in computing capability.
