"With
technology, talent and capital now available globally, the U.S.
is facing unprecedented economic competition from abroad. The
country that wants to out compete must out-compute."
Deborah Wince-Smith,
President of the Council on Competitiveness, 2004
Beyond its
importance in economic development,
computation is rapidly becoming a critical tool for
conducting research in all academic disciplines.
The mission of the UNM Center for High
Performance Computing (HPC@UNM) is to
support faculty lead, computing based, research
throughout the University of New Mexico.
Our goal is to provide the infrastructure and facilities
needed to continue the growth of computing based
research at UNM. We strive to foster new,
interdisciplinary collaborations, based on computation
and to encourage novel applications of computation
in research while continuing to grow traditional
applications of computing in the science and
engineering disciplines.
