Line 1: [[Image:UPM-FI--Bloque-5.jpg\|thumb\|right]] The '''Supercomputing and Visualization Center of Madrid''' (or CeSViMa for short) (In Spanish, Centro de Supercomputación y Visualización de [[Madrid]]) depends on 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]]. == History == 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 an interactive [[Three-dimensional space\|3D]] [[visualization infrastructure]] and a [[terrestrial scanner]]. Line 9 ⟶ 11: ({{coord\|40\|24\|15.65\|N\|03\|50\|4.75\|W\|type:edu_scale:2500\|display=inline,title}}). The supercomputer is upgraded again and reach 16 TFLOPS. The 60% of the supercomputer CPU time is used for RES researches while the 40% is used for Madrid reserarches. === ~~Sources~~Research === The spanish project [[Blue Brain\|Cajal Blue Brain]] is carrying out in the facilities of the Center. The center also colaborates in the retransmision of a [[Solar eclipse]] from [[Russia]]. It also organizes conferences about supercomputing, new developments in hardware and software, scientific publications... == Sources == * [http://www.cesvima.upm.es Centro de Supercomputación y Visualización de Madrid] * [[:es:Centro de Supercomputación y Visualización de Madrid\| CeSViMa in Spanish Wikipedia]]
