Hartree Centre, High performance computing center at Daresbury Laboratory, England
The Hartree Centre is a high performance computing facility located at Daresbury Laboratory in England. It operates advanced supercomputer systems that help organizations tackle complex calculations and data-intensive work.
The facility was established in 2012 with government backing to provide UK industry and academia access to advanced computing technologies. Since then it has grown into a major hub for organizations seeking to use national computational resources.
The name comes from Douglas Rayner Hartree, a pioneering English mathematician who shaped modern computing. Today it serves as a meeting point for researchers and industry professionals working on real-world problems.
Visitors can consult with specialists to learn how to use the computing systems for their projects. Tours and technical support are available to help organizations get started with high performance data processing.
The center experiments with quantum computing applications that explore new ways to solve scientific problems. This technology is still in early stages, but many researchers are already using it to test simulations that would be impossible on conventional computers.
