High-per­form­ance com­put­ing: su­per­com­puters driv­ing in­nov­a­tion

The ‘Noctua 2’ supercomputer forms the heart of Paderborn University’s high-performance computing centre. Researchers across the country use the computing capacity of high-performance computer systems to run computer simulations and conduct scientific enquiry at the highest level. High-performance computing (HPC) is used for a variety of disciplines including quantum, climate and pharmaceutical research.
