![]() | How Fast is My Supercomputer?Application benchmarking is a crucial activity in the UK’s path to Exascale, ensuring future systems are understood so that scientific applications can take advantage of the new opportunities offered. |
![]() | Hospital bed managementWe have developed a system that helps us estimatehow many beds are needed 8 hours ahead of time, by incorporating live data from emergency departments. The real-time data flows provided by EMAP were crucial for Dr Zella King’s work helping UCLH staff to manage the flow of patients through hospital, which won the Healthcare Partnership of the Year category at the London Higher Awards 2024. |

![]() | Simulation software advancing the discovery of new catalystsProf Michail Stamatakis from UCL Chemical Engineering developed Zacros to simulate molecular phenomena on catalytic surfaces, but the code needed further work to run effectively on HPC platforms. |
![]() | Electronic Health Records at your FingertipsAmong other things, the emergence of Artificial Intelligence means we need live health record data suitable for use in both research and clinical applications. |
