项目介绍
EPCC (formerly the Edinburgh Parallel Computing Centre) offers the opportunity to study for a PhD in areas related to High Performance Computing, Computational & Data Science, Software Engineering & Sustainability, and Parallelism.
Founded in 1990, EPCC is one of the leading supercomputing centres in Europe and a major provider of training in high performance computing. EPCC’s expertise includes advanced research, technology transfer, commercial consultancy and the provision of supercomputing and data services to academia and business.
EPCC hosts an exceptional collection of high-performance and novel computing facilities including, on behalf of UKRI, ‘ARCHER2’, the UK’s Tier-1 research supercomputer. Other systems include the Arm-based ‘Fulhame’ system as part of the Catalyst UK programme and the heterogeneous (CPU/GPU) ‘Cirrus’ system, a national Tier-2 HPC service. EPCC will also host, as part of the Edinburgh International Data Facility (EIDF), host the first European deployment of a Cerebras CS-1 High Performance AI Computer.
EPCC has a team of experienced researchers with a wealth of expertise in the latest technologies. We have active research interests in various and varied areas including:
- Computational modelling, including computational fluid dynamics
- Programming models and software for future HPC systems
- Performance characterisation and benchmarking
- HPC at the Exascale level
- Big Data and Data Science at scale
- Software Sustainability
- Quantum Computing for HPC
- FPGAs and novel hardware
Our software specialists have an impressive portfolio of projects, including many industrial applications. We work at the forefront of the field, for example through our leadership of the UK’s Software Sustainability Institute, ensuring that today’s new software continues to be improved and supported in the future.
At any time EPCC may be working on dozens or more nationally and/or internationally significant projects often in collaboration with academia, industry, or both. For up to date examples please visit our website.
