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]].

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 research while; the remaining 30% is used for Madrid research.

In May [[2008]], the center migrated all its infrastructure to a new building in the newly created Scientific and Technologic Park of the Technical University of Madrid

({{coord|40|24|15.65|N|03|50|4.75|W|type:edu_scale:2500|display=inline,title}}). The supercomputer was upgraded again and reach 16 TFLOPS. 60% of the supercomputer CPU time is used for RES research; the restremaining 40% is used for Madrid research.

During [[2009]] the center joined the ''Spanish e-Science Network'' and the ''[[Madrid]] Laboratories and Infrastructures Network''.
