High-Performance Computing

High-Performance Computing (HPC) is a technology that uses clusters of powerful processors working in parallel to process massive, multidimensional data sets and solve complex problems at extremely high speeds. Here are some key points about HPC:

Key Features

  • Massive Parallel Processing : HPC systems use tens of thousands to millions of processors or processor cores to perform computations simultaneously.
  • Supercomputers : These are purpose-built computers with millions of processors or processor cores, capable of performing billions of floating-point operations per second (FLOPS).
  • Computer Clusters : HPC clusters comprise multiple high-speed computer servers networked together, managed by a centralized scheduler.
  • High-Speed Components : Includes high-performance CPUs or GPUs, fast networking, high-throughput storage, and low-latency memory.
