Computerome - Danish National Life Science Supercomputing Center

Computerome - Danish National Life Science Supercomputing Center is located in Kongens Lyngby, Denmark on Kemitorvet. Computerome - Danish National Life Science Supercomputing Center is rated 3 out of 5 in the category computer & network security in Denmark. The Danish National Life Science Supercomputing Center, Computerome is a HPC Facility specialized for Life Science. Users include Research groups from all Danish Universities and large international research consortiums as well as users from industry and the public Health Care Sector. They all benefit from the fast, flexible and secure infrastructure and the ability to combine different types of sensitive data and perform analysis. Computerome is physically installed at the Technical University of Denmark (DTU) Risø campus and managed by a strong team of specialists from DTU. Computerome is the official supercomputer of ELIXIR Denmark, a member of ELIXIR, the European infratructure for biological information. Life science research has special demands for the amount of data being processed as well as for the transfer time between storage and computing resources and the size of local storage on the nodes. Computerome fulfills all those demands. It also meet the demands of statutory acts and the highest security levels necessary when you are working with sensitive data. It debuted in November 2014 at #121 on TOP500 Supercomputing Sites within life science, and it is constantly expanding. Using Cloud Computerome uses private cloud technology as a delivery mechanism for HPC. This gives some uniqe advantages in terms of security and it hides the underlying hardware/Software complexities. Computerome's present compute resources consist of 16048 CPU cores with 92 TeraBytes of memory, connected to 8 PetaBytes of High-performance storage, and with a total peak performance of more than 483 TeraFLOPS (483 million million floating-point operations per second). The computer hardware is funded with grants from the Technical University of Denmark (DTU), University of Copenhagen (KU) and the Danish e-infrastructure Cooperation (DeiC). Pilot Projects Researchers from any Danish university may submit a call of interest for a project to become a DeIC National eScience Pilot Project.
