BSC Infrastructure and Services Overview
Barcelona Supercomputing Center (BSC) offers a range of services including a PhD program, technology transfer, and R&D in various sciences. They provide supercomputing services to researchers in Spain and the EU, with high-performance computing clusters like MareNostrum4. Access to BSC infrastructures is competitive, with opportunities for strategic projects and dedicated allocations. The Spanish Strategic Projects have specific requirements and are endorsed by the BSC Board of Trustees. For more information, contact Oriol Pineda at oriol.pineda@bsc.es.
