High Performance Computing

Projects with High Performance Computing (HPC) needs generally involve storage or transfer of large amounts of and/or high risk data, significant computational power, modeling, or visualization that cannot be handled by standard computing infrastructure. 

UBC Advanced Research Computing (ARC) provides institutionally managed high-performance computing (HPC) infrastructure that supplements the national resources offered by the Digital Research Alliance of Canada. Accessing and using UBC’s HPC infrastructure is mediated through Advanced Research Computing.
