Application experts

If you are not an expert in high-performance computing (HPC), application experts can assist you to use HPC to do your research.

What is an application expert?

High-performance computing application experts are researchers who have a background in research in one or more scientific areas, along with extensive experience using HPC programs and applications for research in those areas.

How application experts can assist you

In general application experts can help researchers with

  • problems running programs in specific research areas,
  • optimising code,
  • advanced software issues,
  • installing more complicated software,
  • applications for time allocations on HPC systems, and
  • more advanced questions about system software or storage.

How to get help from an application expert

There are application experts available at PDC, and also through other supercomputing centres in Sweden, who can help with high-performance computing related to specific research areas.

If you would like assistance from an application expert, please contact PDC Support  and explain what you need help with.

If the expertise of the current PDC application experts lies outside your research area, we will help you to find an application expert based at another National Academic Infrastructure for Supercomputing in Sweden (NAISS) centre who can assist you.
