Great Response to JSC’s Support Offer for COVID-19 Research

Jülich, 18 May 2020: JSC together with its partners in the Gauss Centre for Supercomputing and in PRACE announced their offer for unbureaucratic and rapid support for COVID-19 research in March. Starting with initially three projects, another nine national and international projects dealing with the spread of the virus and with research on a medical or molecular level are receiving computing resources on JSC’s HPC facilities and are being supported by JSC experts in code and algorithm development.

Der Jülicher Supercomputer JUWELS

A turbocharger for the supercomputer JUWELS

The Jülich supercomputer JUWELS will have a big brother, a so-called booster module, as the Forschungszentrum Jülich, the French IT group Atos and the German software company ParTec have agreed. The module, equipped with several thousand graphics processors, is designed for extreme computing power and artificial intelligence tasks. In 2020, the computing power of JUWELS will be increased from currently 12 to over 70 petaflops – this corresponds to the power of more than 300,000 modern PCs.
