IT4Innovations National Supercomputing Center is an important part of e-Infrastructure of the Czech Republic focused on HPC research and services. Its seat is at the VŠB – Technical University of Ostrava. The research programme of IT4Innovations is focused on HPC and contains the following themes: earth science simulations for disaster management, numerical modeling for engineering, physics and chemistry, development of libraries for parallel computing, modeling for nanotechnologies, soft-computing methods, recognition and presentation of multimedia data, safe and reliable architectures, networks and protocols. The Center operates the most advanced HPC technologies and services and makes them available to Czech and foreign research teams from both academia and industry. The Center operates two supercomputers – Anselm and Salomon. The Salomon supercomputer was put into the operation in July 2015 at which time it was with its theoretical computing power of 2 Petaflops the 40th fastest supercomputer in the world based on the TOP500 list. It is also the largest installation of Intel Xeon Phi co-processors in Europe. |
