NEC is involved in advancing the world’s capabilities in HPC in several areas, and specifically sustained performance. With the long term experience in HPC with its many CPU technologies NEC have always tried to put sustained performance as the most important capability. It is not what a compute resource can advertise but its use to the users and researchers that is most important.

NEC collaborate with several renowned Universities in reaching this goal of best Sustained Performance. 
During the years several collaborations have targeted the use and managment of clusters, the integration of the vector CPU in the cluster environment and optimization of research applications.

This shows NECs dedication to working with research institutes to provide best in class computational
resources for the users.
