The Hartree Centre of the Science & Technology
Facilities Council (STFC) is entering into a tender
process for the procurement of new visualisation
facilities at its new building on the same campus,
installation of new collaborative and development
rooms and integration of existing equipment at its new
premises on the Daresbury Laboratories site.
The newly relocated and updated visualisation
facilities will complement a large investment in
supercomputing capabilities at the Hartree Centre,
Daresbury. In addition to large-scale visualisation,
these procured facilities must be capable of
supporting collaborative working with partners on site
locally and offsite via collaborative communications
technologies. Connectivity between visualisation and
High Performance computing for scalability and
computational steering will also be an important
element. Interoperability and flexibility is also key, so
as to be able to address future use cases.
