High Performance Grid Computing

High Performance Computing (HPC) is a term describing the use of distributed computing, parallel computing or Grid Computing in order to solve complex computational problems. HPC solutions typically involve complex setups in which supercomputers or expensive computing clusters are used in order to compose the computing infrastructure.

HPC and XGE

With the Xoreax Grid Engine, HPC capabilities can be obtained using a fraction of the cost of an equivalent HPC setup. XGE utilizes spare CPU cycles of existing PCs and desktops in the local network, combined with unique Virtualization technology, to achieve up to a x30 speed-up in the computational process.

XGE can help accelerate time-consuming computational processes in a wide variety of computational fields, including (and not limited to):

  • Engineering
  • Finance
  • Design and Manufacturing
  • 3D and Graphics
  • Logical Circuits
  • Energy
  • Simulation
  • Data Conversion
