The '''Supercomputing and Visualization Center of Madrid''' (or CeSViMa for short) (In Spanish, Centro de Supercomputación y Visualización de Madrid) isdepends inon the Computer Science Faculty of the [[Technical University of Madrid]]. This center houses [[Magerit]], the second most powerful supercomputer in Spain. This center and its supercomputer is a member of the [[Spanish Supercomputing Network]].

In [[2004]] CeSViMa was created by the [[Technical University of Madrid]] and [[CIEMAT]]. The aim of the center is to provide computation resources to the researchers of [[Madrid]]. [[IBM]] provided the supercomputer Magerit in the center. The center also has a interactive [[3D]] [[visualization infrastructure]] and a [[terrestrial scanner]].

In [[2007]] CeSViMa joined the [[Spanish Supercomputing Network]] and the supercomputer [[Magerit]] was upgraded. The 70% of the supercomputer CPU time is used for RES researches while the 30% is used for Madrid reserarches.
