Since 2021, high-performance computing (HPC) at German universities has been structured by the NHR network. This network consists of nine NHR centers, which both operate the high-performance computers and offer a coordinated consulting service on the methodological competence of scientific HPC. The ZIH of the TU Dresden is one of these national NHR centers. The Free State of Saxony and the federal government provide sustained funding for this.

The Service Catalogue gives an overview of the ZIH service offerings. It is closely linked with the Self Service Portal, which offers are aimed at employees and students of the TU Dresden.

Services operated by ZIH are monitored continuously. Information on status, scheduled maintenance works or current incidents are provided here.

Die Infrastruktur der beiden Standorte Lehmann-Zentrum (LZR) und Trefftz-Bau (TRE) ist Basis für alle vom ZIH betriebenen IT-Dienste und Hochleistungsrechner.

The software application strategy of the TU Dresden aims at concentrating resources and acquiring software with research- or country-wide licenses or campus-wide licenses. The central software procurement is dedicated to this task, analysing the demand of system and application software, signing contracts with software providers, providing and distributing the software to the users according to license laws.

Here you will find information about current offers of training courses, workshops and our monthly ZIH Colloquium.

The high performance computing system /memory complex (HRSK II) provides Saxonian researchers and scientists with a supercomputer that can handle over 1.5 thousand trillion arithmetic operations per second. Being constructed specifically for data-intensive calculations, the architecture and means for energy control offer ideal conditions...

The ZIH is firmly embedded in the local research in Saxony, as well as closely linked with national and international scientific institutions and partners from industry and business. Our research is focused on supporting users in optimizing their scientific applications and in the development of new methods.
