How Florida Researchers Are Using UF’s Supercomputer

High-impact research is in full swing on the University of Florida’s powerful supercomputer, with faculty and students from across the State University System using HiPerGator ⁠— one of the smartest machines in the world — to advance critical work in areas including the environment, technology and medicine.

Available to all State University System institutions, researchers across Florida are leveraging HiPerGator’s 70,000+ compute cores — which receive and execute instructions — of cutting-edge computing power to advance solutions to problems previously thought to be unsolvable. For context, an average laptop has four compute cores.

At least 117 researchers from across the state have used HiPerGator since it was made available systemwide. Instructors from Florida’s 12 public universities can also use HiPerGator in their teaching, introducing students to the possibilities of AI and its applications across fields.
