Agustina

At the Institute for Biocomputation and Physics of Complex Systems (BIFI) at the University of Zaragoza

The Institute of Biocomputation and Physics of Complex Systems (BIFI) of the University of Zaragoza manages the Agustina supercomputer. BIFI  is a member of the Spanish Supercomputing Network and the Spanish e-Science Network.

BIFI hosts the Supercomputing Center of Aragon (CESAR), a computing infrastructure that encompasses a broad range of HPC, cloud, voluntary computing and dedicated computing technologies.

HPC computing resources offer several million CPU hours and hundreds of terabytes of storage per year, to BIFI researchers (and their collaborators) and to external users through the Spanish Supercomputing Network, the hosted clusters program and other services provided.
