Leading organizations partnering with us to accelerate innovation through supercomputing.

Digital Innovation & Automation

Digital innovation and automation

Challenge: Climate variability makes it hard to plan inventory, production and personnel in the retail and sport sector.
Solution: We delivered climate predictions at multiple time scales (weeks, months, seasons, years) with indicators relevant to seasonal sports. The reports were prepared in clear business language.

Results

+14% improvement in salesReduction in inventory surplus by 22%Improved personnel allocation during peak demandData-driven procurement decisions

Cybersecurity data optimization

Cybersecurity data optimisation

Challenge: A major cybersecurity company needed to process huge datasets but storage, data access and verification were slow and costly.
Solution: Qbeast optimized storage, file monitoring and secondary processes, integrated an easy-to-use platform and provided powerful visibility tools.

Results

Query time: 38 mins → 1 min97% reduction in query processing time30% savings in storage infrastructure costsNear real-time visibility into data verificationSeamless integration with existing security workflows

Health & Biotechnology

Health and biotechnology

Challenge: Viruses mutate fast. Protein-based vaccines need stable proteins, but many lose their structure.
Solution: Using HPC, we identified mutations that stabilize proteins and increase production capacity.

Results

Proteins 5x more effective 5x increase in immunogen production yields Stability increased by 40% at room temperature Significant reduction in R&D iteration time Higher vaccine efficacy in initial trials

Energy & Sustainability

Energy and sustainability

Challenge: Optimizing infrastructure usage is essential for reducing energy costs and meeting sustainability goals.
Solution: BSC’s EAR software monitors and optimizes energy usage in real time for heavy compute clusters.

Results

10% energy savings 10% immediate reduction in operational energy costs Lower carbon footprint for HPC operations Enhanced longevity of hardware components Automated power capping without performance loss

Advanced modelling & simulation

Advanced modelling and simulation

Challenge: Optimizing vehicle aerodynamics while reducing the number of physical prototypes and computational costs.
Solution: Large scale fluid dynamics simulations using custom algorithms optimized for MareNostrum architecture.

Results

98% reduction in calc time 98% faster computation of drag coefficients Reduction of physical wind tunnel tests by 60% Accelerated design cycle by 4 months Improved fuel efficiency in production models
