The Spanish Supercomputing Network (RES, Red Española de Supercomputación) is a scientific network created by the Spanish Education Ministry. The network is composed by several supercomputers distributed over Spain. This institution tries to provide the computing resources needed by researchers in Spain and Europe. Nowadays, the network comprises eight supercomputers: * Altamira in IFCA, (University of Cantabria, Cantabria). * CesarAugusta in University of Zaragoza, (Zaragoza). * LaPalma in IAC, (Canarias). * Magerit in CeSViMa, (Technical University of Madrid, Madrid). * MareNostrum in BSC, (Polytechnic University of Catalonia, Barcelona). * Picasso in University of Malaga, (Malaga). * Tirant in University of Valencia, (Valencia). * Atlante in ITC, (Canarias) All these systems follow the same design, only with different numbers of IBM JS20 or JS21 blades. == History == Spanish Supercomputing Network was created in March 2007 to increase the needs of computing resources in Spain. To achieve this, Magerit and MareNostrum supercomputers were upgraded and the old nodes from MareNostrum were used to create five nodes (Altamira, CesarAugusta, LaPalma, Picasso, Tirant) of the network. In 2009 Atlante supercomputer joined the network. The software of the supercomputers was upgraded to the same level. In 2011 Magerit was upgraded and became the most powerful supercomputer in Spain and of this network. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Spanish Supercomputing Network」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
