High Performance Computing

The Center for Scientific Computing (CSC) of the Goethe University Frankfurt currently operates two Linux-based computer clusters within the framework of the Hessischer Hochleistungsrechnerverbund (HHLR) to support numerically intensive studies in a variety of research fields, ranging from neuroscience to high-energy physics.

In late summer 2009 an extension of the existing computing facilities will become operational, adding another 20 TFlop/s computing power to fulfill the increasing demands of the user community.
 





The CSC was founded as a joint initiative of research groups from the university departments

  • Physics,
  • Chemistry, Biochemistry and Pharmacy,
  • Geosciences,
  • Computer Science and Mathematics
and the Frankfurt Institute for Advanced Studies (FIAS).

The mission of the CSC is HPC support for the scientific community and education in Computational Science.

The CSC organizes the interdisciplinary master program Computational Science and regular seminars.
