Computational science and information technology programmes

The Science and Technology Facilities Council provides world-class expertise and support for UK theoretical and computational science communities, in both academia and industry. It is also leading the UK in networking services and technology development.

The Council's cost-effective and efficient services are enabling predictions from complex theories to be calculated from first principles and be compared directly with experimental data, the analysis of millions of megabytes of data via grid networks.

Along with EPCC and IBM, the Council is providing the flagship high performance computing service for UK academic research - known as HPCx.
