Welcome to PLGrid
The PLGrid infrastructure enables research based on simulation and computation using clusters and distributed computing resources. It provides users with the opportunity to take advantage of the computing power of the fastest supercomputers in Europe and to increase the scale of calculations performed as part of scientific research many times over. The access is free of charge for scientists and research assistants employed at Polish research centres. PhD students, undergraduates and external collaborators can also benefit from PLGrid services.
