High Performance Computing or HPC refers to any computational activity requiring more than a single computer to execute a task, giving rise to parallel and distributed computing.
Parallel and distributed computing systems range from very small (sensors), to small (embedded systems, smartphones, etc.), to medium-sized (desktops, laptops, tablets), and to extremely large (supercomputers).

High performance computing systems typically are supercomputers that execute tasks at a high performance. The HPC sector entails hardware, systems software and tools, and applications and services.

The HPC research group is one of the eight research groups in Computer Science in the Department of Mathematics and Computer Science of the Faculty of Science at the University of Basel, Switzerland.

Our group’s research in HPC is concerned with the performance optimization of parallel and distributed computing systems and their applications. This involves studying the interplay between HPC systems and applications and comprehensively understanding the utilization and operation of HPC and Data centers and their users.
