Rice University
Blue Gene/P
In 2012, USP and William Marsh Rice University have signed a deal to promote the development of research and other academic and cultural activities, included an agreement for academic cooperation and an agreement for the shared use of a supercomputer.
In the academic agreement it is foreseen the interchange of teachers and researchers , the ensemble elaboration of research projects; the organization of scientific and cultural events; the interchange of academic scientific information and publications, student interchange, interchange of technical and administrative people; shared courses and curricula. The agreement previews the shared administrations and use of a Blue Gene supercomputer with 24576 nuclei (86 TeraFlops).
This machine should help to construct a sinergistic scientifc colaboration between the two universities. By this agreement USP´s share accounts to 30% of the supercomputer usage, in studies related to engineering, physiscs, material strucutre, astronomy, weather forecast, atmospheric sciences, climate studies, environment, pharmacy products design and biotechnology.
