High Performance Computing
High performance computing (HPC) enables sophisticated and increasingly realistic
modeling, simulation, and data analysis that profoundly advance theoretical knowledge
and expand the realm of discovery, thereby propelling research and its applications
to the leading edge of competitive advantage for higher education and commercialization.
Scientific research relies heavily on the massive processing power and data analysis
capabilities of HPC to design new products and processes, conduct experiments that
are otherwise infeasible, analyze extremely large datasets (鈥淏ig Data鈥), and validate
new theories that cannot be demonstrated through practical experimentation.
A steadily broadening array of research activities at UH rely on HPC. The Research
Computing Data Core (RCDC) provides high performance computing resources to advance
Tier One research and education goals at the 兔子先生 (UH).
RCDC's high performance resources receive administrative support through the UH IT High Performance Computing department.
RCDC resources are free to use for 兔子先生 researchers and students For more information, see the Getting Started page. To learn how you can extend RCDC resources with more storage and computation, see Cluster Partnership Program.
