Innovative Systems

Whether it’s keeping pace with trends in high-performance computing or adapting them to our needs, we create the cutting-edge systems that enable us to excel, always staying one step ahead. No matter where the next step leads. 

Innovative Systems is an applied research and development unit tasked with developing and evaluating novel approaches to high-performance computing in support of the current and future scientific computational needs of NCSA and campus partners. For example, the team’s Deep Learning Major Research Instrument Project delivers unprecedented performance for extreme data-intensive emerging fields of research. The results will have far-reaching impacts in many areas including computer vision, natural language processing, artificial intelligence, healthcare and education.
