Life Sciences

The Life Sciences industry has evolved dramatically over the past decade, and the simulations used today test the limits of HPC systems. In the Life Sciences, HPC methods cover a vast area that includes modular and quantum mechanics and dynamics, QSAR, genomic assembly and comparison, whole cell process simulations, and medical imaging, just to name a few.  HPC computing systems in this market utilize a mix of high capability and high throughput technologies.

The Cray XT5, with its highly scalable and affordable network combined with unmatched compute density, can handle the most challenging capability and capacity computing needs.
