Summary
High performance computing for mathematics, chemistry, engineering and climate research. The aim of this proposal is to accelerate research across a range of disciplines using high performance computing which is currently limited by the present available computing power. These disciplines include: mathematical modelling of magnetic resonance imaging, computational chemistry, engineering fluid dynamics, climate system modelling including atmosphere, ocean and ice sheet simulations.

The aim of this proposal is to accelerate research across a range of disciplines using high performance computing which is currently limited by the present available computing power. These disciplines include: mathematical modelling of magnetic resonance imaging, computational chemistry, engineering fluid dynamics, climate system modelling including atmosphere, ocean and ice sheet simulations. The University of Tasmania, the Antarctic CRC and Australian Antarctic Division are combining resources to share in a joint facility of much greater capability. The proposed new high performance computing facility will increase in the computational power (over a weighted average of our benchmarks) by 13, an 8 fold increase in memory, and a 10 fold increase in disk storage. This new facility will allow these research groups to maintain their internationally leading edge status in high performance computing.Read moreRead less
