What is HPC?
What is High-Performance Computing (HPC)?
Section titled “What is High-Performance Computing (HPC)?”Using clusters of computers to solve complex problems faster than a single machine
Applications
Section titled “Applications”In general, application for HPC include:
- Scientific Simulations
- AI/ML Training
