Ohio Supercomputer Center Expands Ohio's Computational Resources Eligibility to Full-Time Research Scientists

Now Ohio’s research scientists and faculty members alike can use the Ohio Supercomputer Center’s (OSC) high performance computing resources (HPC). Graduate and postdoctoral students enjoy the same access through their professors. 

Unlike many computing facilities, OSC’s liberal user policy puts some of the world’s most powerful supercomputing resources at the fingertips of academic researchers and computational scientists – resources that were once exclusively reserved for tenure-track faculty members.

OSC Announces High Performance Computing Partnership with Edison Welding Institute
 

Joining high performance computing (HPC) applications with small- and medium-sized companies is one step closer to reality as the Ohio Supercomputer Center (OSC) and the Edison Welding Institute (EWI) announced a partnership agreement today.  As part of its innovative Blue Collar Computing initiative, OSC will provide remote portal access of HPC systems and software to EWI welding applications—a tremendous cost-saving resource that will reach engineers at over 200 companies. 

Blue Collar Computing Receives HPCwire 2006 Readers' Choice Award

The Blue Collar Computing program at the Ohio Supercomputer Center (OSC) today received the prestigious HPCwire 2006 Readers’ Choice Award for “Best Collaboration Between Government and Industry.” HPCwire is considered the leading source for global news and information covering the ecosystem of high productivity computing.

Ohio Supercomputer Center Workshop Gives Researchers, Developers Edge in Managing Software Projects

As software code bases grow larger and more complex, it becomes more challenging to manage these projects. The Ohio Supercomputer Center’s (OSC) workshop, Software Development Tools, provides the tools to help researchers and developers with their software projects.

Ohio Supercomputer Center Hosts ALTAIR Software Workshop

Learn the latest about some of the most robust engineering software packages available at the Ohio Supercomputer Center's (OSC) workshop, Using Altair HyperMesh and Hyperview.
