Today Rescale announced a strategic business agreement with the Korea Institute of Science and Technology Information to provide cloud services for KISTI’s Nurion supercomputer. “The existing HPC cluster required users to generate command lines in the terminal when performing computer-aided engineering (CAE). In contrast, the Rescale platform allows users to focus on research and development efforts more easily and quickly by building an optimal framework based on application characterizes such as Abaqus, ANSYS CFX, ANSYS Fluent, Gromacs and Quantum Espresso.”

How Deep Learning Could Predict Weather Events
March 31, 2019 by
Seongchan Kim from KISTI gave this talk at GTC 2019. “How do meteorologists predict weather or weather events such as hurricanes, typhoons, and heavy rain? Predicting weather events were done based on supercomputer (HPC) simulations using numerical models such as WRF, UM, and MPAS. But recently, many deep learning-based researches have been showing various kinds of outstanding results. We’ll introduce several case studies related to meteorological researches.”
HLRS and Wuhan to Collaborate on Exascale Computing
May 4, 2018 by
The High-Performance Computing Center Stuttgart (HLRS) and Supercomputing Center of Wuhan University have announced plans to cooperate on technology and training projects. “HLRS and the Supercomputing Center at Wuhan University plan to exchange scientists and to focus on key research topics in high-performance computing. Both sides will also share experience in installing large-scale computing systems, particularly because both Wuhan and Stuttgart aim to develop exascale systems.”
