About the PRACE-LAB project and the Atlair supercomputer in “Dziennik Gazeta Prawna” daily newspaper

Recently, there has been a lot of new information about Polish supercomputers. All because of the TOP500 list identifying the fastest supercomputers in the world, which was announced at the SC’21 Conference (Supercomputing).  Polish machines are also present in this prestigious, which were commissioned as part of the PRACE-LAB project. A press article devoted to this subject appeared in “Dziennik Gazeta Prawna” journal.

In the Friday edition of November 19, 2021 we can read about the PRACE-LAB project and about the data processing infrastructure which provides advanced computing services for the scientific community, not only in Poland, but also in Europe (full article here below, in the Polish version).

Three systems launched as part of the project are present on this year’s TOP500 list:
