High-Performance Computing Center Stuttgart

About High-Performance Computing Center Stuttgart

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.
