1. Multi-disciplinary researchers from across the University of Edinburgh -- working in areas including bioinformatics, speech processing, particle physics, material physics, chemistry, cosmology, medical imaging and psychiatry -- will now benefit from a significant upgrade to the University's shared, high performance computer (HPC) system known as "Eddie." The new HPC system, operational from July 2010, immediately doubles the compute power available to researchers enabling them to run more complex computer simulations and scenarios, and obtain research results more quickly. A second planned upgrade for 2011 is expected to result in at least five times the current compute power of Eddie being available to researchers. (Read Full Article)
