FACILITIES

The High Performance Computing (HPC) laboratory is established to meet the growing demand for supercomputing facilities among researchers at DST-Mahamana Centre of Excellence in Climate Change Research, IESD, Banaras Hindu University. It supports research in areas such as Regional & Global Modeling, Atmospheric and Ocean Modeling, Agriculture, Hydrology, and Human Health, where large-scale data computation is essential.

High Performance Computing (HPC), also known as Research Computing or Scientific Computing, is designed for tasks that cannot be handled by standard desktop computers. These tasks may involve processing vast datasets, solving complex numerical problems, or performing repetitive calculations across various scenarios. HPC architectures include SMP (Symmetrical Multi-Processor Computing), Cluster Computing, and Grid Computing, each tailored to specific computational needs.
