Today marks the official operational launch of the iVEC Pawsey Centre – Australia’s newest supercomputer facility in Perth, Western Australia.
Supercomputing resources at iVEC’s Pawsey Centre will be available for data-intensive projects across the scientific spectrum, including radio astronomy, geosciences, biotechnology and nanotechnology.
A significant portion of the supercomputing power will be dedicated to processing radio-astronomy data from major facilities, including CSIRO’s ASKAP telescope.
