The Pawsey Supercomputing Centre is delighted to receive the news that the National Computational Infrastructure (NCI) has been awarded funding to replace its supercomputer Raijin. The Australian Government announced in the Mid-Year Economic and Fiscal Outlook (MYEFO) that the Department of Education and Training will provide $70 million to boost supercomputing power at NCI. This
Every year, the Pawsey Supercomputing Centre runs an intensive 10-week internship program. In November 2017, twelve students were selected to join the program and delve deeper into their scientific areas through high performance computing. From optimising filter generation for gravitational wave detection, the historical image classification system, to quantum machine learning, students have learned how

Staff from Pawsey and the National Computational Infrastructure (NCI) recently attended SC17-the Supercomputing conference in Denver, the largest and more prestigious international conference for High Performance Computing (HPC). SC attracts scientists and engineers, software developers, policymakers, corporate managers, CIOs, and HPC administrators from universities, industry, and government agencies. SC has grown to become truly an international conference,
Science studies the physical and natural worlds through observation and experiment; via question, discovery, explanation and theory. Science uncovers the deepest truth in all aspects of existence in the past, present and future; regardless of scale. Why is this so important? It helps us predict the future, based on the past; it cures disease, prevents famine, discovers alternate and
Sharing Australia’s Supercomputing Experiences at SC17! The Pawsey Supercomputing Centre, along with National Computational Infrastructure (NCI) are exhibiting at SC17! We are at booth355/357, so if you’re at the Denver Convention Centre, don’t forget to visit us! Our experts will be at our booth at all times, to answer any questions you may have!
Waves of applause for Pawsey at SC17 Denver conference Thanks to its extensive collaboration with industry and academia, Pawsey has received the HPCwire Reader’s and Editor’s Choice Award in recognition of the centre’s outstanding performance. HPCwire is the number one news source for high-performance computers and the award represents the impact Pawsey supercomputers are having
Moving from a system designed for pre- and post- processing workloads, Zeus will become Pawsey’s new mid-range cluster in December 2017. The new cluster will target key science communities such as Bioinformatics, who have large compute requirements but aren’t ready to use a supercomputer such as Pawsey’s flagship system, Magnus. The addition of an extra
Calls are now open for supercomputing time on Magnus at the Pawsey Supercomputing Centre in 2018.
