Irish Researchers in Bid to Develop World's Fastest Supercomputers

Software developed by researchers at Queen's University Belfast could be used to build some of the world's fastest computers. The exascale computing software will enable supercomputers to process large amounts of data at higher speeds than ever before. Researchers in the School of Electronics, Electrical Engineering, and Computer Science are collaborating with other specialists from the University of Manchester and the STFC Daresbury Laboratory on the Scalable, Energy-Efficient, Resilient, and Transparent Software Adaptation (SERT) project. "This project sheds valuable insight on how to use many core-based systems effectively, proving major benefits for a wide range of scientific endeavors that depend on large-scale simulations," says Jack Dongarra, an honorary visiting professor at the University of Manchester.
