Digital/ICT
Daresbury SIC occupies a powerful position
in UK supercomputing and in high performance and distributed
computing & data services. The Computational Science
& Engineering Department (CSED) at Daresbury SIC provides
world-class expertise and support for the UK theoretical and
computational science communities in both academia and industry,
and is one of the world's leading players in the modelling and
design of microfluidic devices.
This critical mass of expertise is proving to be a magnet not
only for Digital/ICT companies interacting with the campus, but for
a broader spectrum of companies active in advanced engineering
& instrumentation, healthcare and automotive & aeronautical
engineering, all requiring Daresbury SIC's world class modelling
and simulation capabilities.
Here, over 60 computational scientists are developing
high-performance applications in core areas of quantum chemistry,
molecular simulation, solid-state physics, materials simulation,
engineering and environmental simulations.
Benefiting from HPCx the largest academic high end computing
(HEC) facility in Europe and the 2nd largest in the world, these
scientists, through the DAComS service offer the unique capability
to carry out advanced simulation in science and engineering,
providing unbeatable combination of:
- Access to leading edge
computational facilities and evaluation of cost-effective and novel
computing technologies.
- Exploitation of a comprehensive suite of community and
commercial science and engineering simulation codes in materials, life-science, engineering
and environmental modelling applications.
- Harnessing of the expertise of the largest Computational
Science and Engineering group in the UK to deliver industrial solutions.
