Mission
The High Performance Computing Group
works to empower scholars in their ability to compute and manage data by developing and maintaining several
state-of-the-art computational clusters. Staff members provide support and expertise for research using programming
languages, numerical libraries, statistical packages, finite element solvers, and specialized software for
computational biology, chemistry, fluid mechanics and other disciplines. The group also provides information and
expertise for code optimization and parallelization on various high performance computing machines available at
Penn State as well as at major national centers.

Organization
The High Performance Computing Group is part of the
Research Computing and Cyberinfrastructure
(RCC) group, a unit of Information Technology Services (ITS) at Penn State. The HPC group serves as the Penn State point of contact
in the Coalition of Academic
Supercomputing Centers, of which Penn State is a member.
The HPC group is also a participating unit in the Penn State
Institute For High
Performance Computing Applications.
