Bioinformatics and high performance computing

Since 2001, the Center for Collective Use "Siberian Supercomputer Center" (SSCC) with peak performance of 115 TFlops clusters has been functioning in the IVMMG SB RAS. The main tasks of the center: development and use of supercomputer technologies for mathematical modeling of various problems solved in the institutes of the SB RAS; providing the work of the institutes of the Siberian Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences and Siberian universities on mathematical modeling in fundamental and applied research; training specialists of the SB RAS and university students in methods of parallel computing on supercomputers, methods for modeling large problems. One of the main consumers of resources is the Center for Collective Use "Bioinformatics", created on the basis of the Institute of Cytology and Genetics of the SB RAS. Within the framework of joint work of the centers of collective use, software packages were developed on the most relevant scientific areas of bioinformatics. The work is devoted to the review of resources of SSCC and applied software packages on bioinformatics.
