Welcome to HPC at the ICP

You have found your way to the official documentation of for high performance computing at the University of Stuttgart’s Institute for Computational Physics! Well done. Here you can find all of the information regarding our HPC services as well as a little bit of theory to help in your understanding along the way.

In the getting started part of the documentation we walk you through some basics. Every new user should start here and read over the notes carefully as it will let you know some of the core concepts of HPC, how you can use it, and, most importantly, how you can get access to a cluster.

The following sections outline which clusters you have access to.

Now that you have access to a cluster, you can move on to the user guide and check out what you can do with it.

To get training on specific technologies or present the software you developed, attend one of the many courses/workshops/conferences on HPC and RSE.
