HPC Project has been incorporated in 2007 with the ambition to develop a combined hardware/software approach allowing the exploitation of software on latest generation parallel processors. Their goal is to develop a new range of solutions enabling legacy software to benefit from the parallel revolution without undertaking a prohibitive re-engineering and using the latest technologies in hardware acceleration. Their product is a professional-grade turn-key appliance including optimized domain-specific applications running on a high-end hardware configuration. They partner with major software vendors to provide the end-user with a whole portfolio of his usual tools, dramatically enhanced due to GPU and Multicore acceleration. In addition, the company provides training and engineering services to its customers to help them leverage the power of parallel architectures without engaging into costly re-engineering processes.
