In [[2007]] CeSViMa joined the [[Spanish Supercomputing Network]] and the supercomputer [[Magerit]] was upgraded.

In May [[2008]], the center migrated all its infrastructure to a new building in the newly created in the International Excellence Campus of Montegancedo,<ref>[http://www.upm.es/CEI_Montegancedo/propuesta/2010/educacion/index_en.html I2tech Montegancedo]</ref>, site of 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 remaining 40% is used for Madrid research.

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

The Spanish project [[Blue Brain|Cajal Blue Brain]] is carrying out in the facilities of the CeSViMa. The project also uses the computing resources of Magerit supercomputer

The center also organizes conferences about supercomputing, new developments in hardware and software, scientific publications... and other science activiesactivities. For example, it collaborates in the retransmission of a [[Solar eclipse]] from [[Novosibirsk]], [[Russia]].<ref>[http://www.solareclipse.es/eclipse2008/en.html Solar Eclipse Broadcasting, August 1st, 2008]</ref>.
