  • Descrição: The conference theme provides a fitting platform to delve into the transformative role the Pawsey Supercomputing Research Centre plays in advancing Australian research. This talk will cover Pawsey’s best practices as an eResearch infrastructure, and our learnings along the way in working with our communities and building an accessible and inclusive supercomputing centre. Through its recent capital refresh, Pawsey has deployed the world’s 17th most powerful and 4th greenest system, Setonix. The system is designed to deliver high-performance computing with energy efficiency in mind. Setonix is a hybrid system of central processing units (CPU) and graphics processing units (GPU). This heterogeneous architecture enables Setonix to reach significantly higher computer power and prepare for next-generation high-performance computing (HPC) without significantly increasing power draw. Another important element is Pawsey’s warm and cold storage - a 130PB S3 capable multi-tiered storage system, including Ceph object storage and controlled tape storage. With its strategic partnerships, Pawsey advances eResearch capability through extensive education and training programs, internships, outreach, and research and development. In the realm of eResearch infrastructure, the evolution and uptake of technology is paramount. Researchers worldwide are harnessing cutting-edge technologies to enhance their capabilities. ABOUT THE AUTHORS Aditi Subramanya is driven by a passion for uniting communities, solving intricate problems, and forging connections between seemingly disparate concepts. Aditi’s role centres on fostering collaborations that harness supercomputing’s potential and bringing together diverse minds to tackle complex scientific challenges. Aditi loves unravelling puzzles and weaving patterns, while advocating for the transformative power of interdisciplinary innovation.Mark Gray is the Head of Strategic Partnerships at Pawsey Supercomputing Centre. Mark’s early career includes studying at the University of Wisconsin-Madison in atmospheric science and then research software engineering for the MODIS program at NASA Goddard Space Flight Center. Returning to Australia he worked with several national scientific facilities, building satellite data processing facilities for large-scale data processing. Since 2013 Mark has been advancing Australian research and high-performance computing at Pawsey, initially in DevOps and research software engineering and most recently assuming senior leadership roles. Today Mark is leading opportunity development at Pawsey and is working to make high performance computing more accessible for Australian researchers.For more information about eResearch NZ / eRangahau Aotearoa, visit:https://eresearchnz.co.nz/
