“The results could provide a very important piece of information about the connection between quantum physics and General Relativity and how the universe emerged from the quantum foam of spacetime.”

Researching millions of years of ecological colonisation, competition and re-colonisation in minutes

A science researcher developing predictive models for pre-clinical detection of cognitive decline in Parkinson’s disease says NeSI is enabling him to conduct his research more effectively.

“[This] enabled us to complete the entire computation within 24 hours.”

Researchers achieve 80 fold speedup thanks to hardware and support available through NeSI

How good is the Wind Loading Standard at estimating wind loads for structures in rugged terrain where direct wind measurements are not available?

“Adaptive methods are being used to improve the accuracy and timeliness of wind, wave and tsunami forecasts”

Until recently processing their insect DNA sequence data collected from the next generation sequencing-by-synthesis platforms took one whole week per individual; even when using a fast multi-core desktop Linux machine with plenty of RAM.

Using high performance computing to address genetic problems presents researchers with an opportunity to advance the biological sciences. A researcher at Massey is harnessing HPC to study the effects of social behaviour on small, isolated populations.

The National eScience Infrastructure project provides early-stage researchers with world-class high performance computing facilities, as a PhD student discovered when she was able to complete more than five times as many calculations as others researching
