Blugold Center for High Performance Computing

Students and faculty at the University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire can engage in high-performance, data-driven research thanks to a public-private collaboration with Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE). The only collaboration of its kind in the Midwest, this relationship dramatically increases the university’s supercomputing processing power.

Supercomputing in the Classroom

Over 1,000 students use our computing resources in class annually. Whether it was direct integration into their daily coursework, used during a final exam, or a presentation on how high-performance computing is used in their field, this technology has only enhanced the learning experience of our students.

Supercomputing and the Health Sciences

Since high-resolution images and data-driven research are vital in making medical advancements, the HPE supercomputing cluster creates an opportunity for UW-Eau Claire faculty and students to collaborate in a meaningful way with Mayo Clinic Health System physicians.

Not only do these powerful supercomputing systems offer insights through artificial intelligence and analyzing large subsets of data, but they do so at the speed necessary to drive timely improvements in patient care. High-resolution images, labs, pathology and patient records are just a few opportunities where 澳门葡京网赌送彩金 students and faculty can leverage this technology to further collaborate with Mayo Clinic Health System researchers. Together, both institutions are advancing biomedical technology and data to improve patient outcomes.

Medical science has become increasingly data-driven. You need a lot of data to make an informed decision, a diagnosis or treatment. This cluster will be the perfect tool to collect those data, analyze those data and then benefit medical science.
