NeSI Case Study Brendon Bradley QuakeCORE

Simulating earthquakes for a safer future

We understand the basic physics, but the complexity is such we can’t use intuition to understand these problems. To understand and quantify these phenomena, we need to throw a supercomputer at them.”

NeSI Case Study Timothy Bilton Ken Dodds AgResearch

Optimising tools used for genetic analysis

“NeSI helped our team profile our code to detect inefficiencies and helped improve our code, allowing us to run our analyses faster.”
