The Wolfram Solution for

High-Performance Computing

High-performance computing requires getting correct answers to the most demanding technical and scientific problems. Because of the complexity of such problems, the majority of systems fail to provide either feasible computing times or dependable results.

Wolfram technologies provide the best of both worlds, integrating important HPC technologies in a seamless, optimized environment so you don't have to choose between speed and accuracy. With many of these technologies applied in automated ways, Wolfram offers the high-performance computing environment that lets you deliver quick, correct solutions.

Wolfram technologies include thousands of built-in functions that let you:

  • Build large-scale production systems using the Wolfram Language's unique mix of computational ability, performance, and rapid development
  • Evaluate and improve your architecture before writing code, or test the performance of sections of the code before the application is fully implemented
  • Automate the coding process, dramatically reducing time to delivery
  • Plot running time to see how it scales with input size
  • Enhance financial and linear algebra calculations with CUDA or OpenCL computations
  • Use CUDA architecture to calculate game physics of debris or fluids, or to speed up applications in other fields that demand high performance
  • Use gridMathematica to automatically use extra processing power from local hardware, clusters, or ad hoc grids without changing any code
  • Simulate complex many-body physical systems with classical and quantum Monte Carlo methods
  • Perform powerful image processing with built-in functions for filtering, morphology, and binary operations with the GPU
  • Run large simulations to test models of complex thermodynamic systems
  • Run GPU-optimized BLAST searches on large genomes
  • Study protein dynamics on length and time scales otherwise not possible
