MareNostrumBSC-CNS hosts MareNostrum, one of the most powerful supercomputer in Europe and the number 77 in the world, according to the last Top500 list. In March 2004 the Spanish government and IBM signed an agreement to build one of the the fastest computer in Europe. In November 2006 its capacity has been increased due to the large demand of scientific projects. MareNostrum has increased the calculation capacity of the supercomputer MareNostrum, until reaching 94.21 Teraflops (94.21 trillions of operations per second), doubling its previous capacity (42.35 Teraflops). It had 4.812 processors and has now 10.240 processors with a final calculation capacity of 94.21 Teraflops. ![]() MareNostrum Current Workload ![]() MareNostrum Current Queue ![]() MareNostrum Job Count MareNostrum is managed by the Operations team that takes care of its availability, security and performance. An important task of this team is to support scientists in the usage of MareNostrum, as well as to help them in the improvement of their applications getting better research results. These resources and expertise are not just available remotely. Spanish scientists as well as European ones can visit BSC-CNS through the available mobility programs in order to work together with our experts in supercomputing and learn more about how to improve their work and research results. The RES area (Spanish Supercomputing Network Area) provides access to information and user control of different activities. This is the new procedure to assign users to an activity, to identify resources, to submit new applications, etc. The list of accepted activities for 2nd period 2010 was published on June, 23rd. These activities will start in July 1st, 2010. The deadline for 2010 third period applications is September 15th 11AM CET.
