Simulation, visualization, and artificial intelligence have become essential tools for understanding and addressing many of society's most complex problems. At the High-Performance Computing Center Stuttgart (HLRS), seizing the opportunities that supercomputing and other advanced digital technologies offer for addressing these challenges is at the center of all that we do.
Germany's first national supercomputing center
HLRS was established in 1996 as Germany’s first national high-performance computing (HPC) center. It provides access to supercomputing for science, industry, and the public sector, supporting computationally intensive simulation projects. As a central unit of the University of Stuttgart and a founding member of the Gauss Centre for Supercomputing, HLRS enables large-scale computational research not only in the Stuttgart region, but also for researchers across Germany and Europe.
