HPCVL Grows Massive HPC Facility with Sun
HPCVL, Canada's most powerful high performance secure computing facility based at Queen's University, will become even more powerful thanks to new funding from the Ontario Ministry of Research and Innovation."This grant will enable HPCVL to provide researchers with the support and high performance computing resources they need to be major players in a highly competitive global research and innovation environment," says HPCVL executive director Ken Edgecombe. "Researchers using our facilities include economists, engineers, biologists, psychologists, chemists, and physicists doing groundbreaking work that ranges from identifying properties of neutrinos, to analyzing clinical data, to modeling drug delivery mechanisms."
Sun Microsystems is a key partner in HPCVL, and as of 2006, the Queen's-based facility is the largest Sun Microsystems installation of its kind in the world. Full Story Posted by Rich Brueckner [HPC Article of the Day] ( September 29, 2006 05:00 AM ) Permalink
