Description
MESOCENTRE provides access to high performance/grid/cloud computing facilities and associated data storage. Its main missions are to:
- facilitate the development and improvement of scientific softwares, e.g., porting to larger national or European computing centers,
- give access to HPC and cloud resources for medium-size computations, at a scale larger than what is commonly available in research groups or local institutes,
- promote scientific computing towards SMEs.
MESOCENTRE can support projects from any research area.
