Welcome to the Cray Centre of Excellence for HECToR

The Centre of Excellence is a Cray funded project to engage with HECToR's users to allow them to maximise their use of Cray technologies. The Centre consists of three dedicated Application Analysts who can support users in porting applications or optimising performance and scaling on the Cray HECToR systems. The Centre's work is directed by its steering committee which can allocate grants of additional computational time to achieve specific scientific aims.

The Centre is always interested in hearing from current or potential users of HECToR who would feel they could benefit from Centre of Excellence assistance. To contact us, please email the HECToR Helpdesk and mark the email FAO Cray Centre of Excellence.

Projects

HECToR is used for a wide variety of scientific applications and the Cray Centre of Excellence (CoE) engages with users from many different fields. As well as supporting users day-to-day on the Cray XT4 and Cray XT6, since July 2009 the Steering Committee has commissioned the Centre of Excellence to assist several user projects.
