High Performance Computing utilizes powerful computer systems to tackle complex scientific and engineering challenges. HPC applications range from forecasting weather patterns to developing commercial goods. The University of Maryland's HPC research team explores various facets of this field, from advancements in fundamental numerical methods to system software development and facilitating efficient large-scale computations. Our department has maintained a strong tradition in numerical analysis and scientific computation since the 1970s. Current research focuses on numerical linear algebra, unstable mathematical problems, rapid calculation techniques, and their implementation across various domains including medical imaging, fluid mechanics, and sound wave studies. The group maintains collaborative relationships with mathematics department researchers, with our student body comprising both Computer Science majors and participants in the Applied Mathematics and Scientific Computing Program.
