Fujitsu Australia has been selected to take the lead in upgrading Australia’s fastest supercomputer.
The new supercomputer will be operated by National Computational Infrastructure (NCI) within The Australian National University campus in Canberra, and will be used by the likes of the CSIRO, Geosciences Australia and the Bureau of Meteorology for crucial research.

The new machine, named Gadi meaning ‘to search for’ in the Nguunawal language of the traditional owners of the Canberra region, will increase compute speeds by ten times compared to its existing supercomputer also deployed by Fujitsu in 2012.

“NCI plays a pivotal role in the national research landscape, and the supercomputer is the centrepiece of this important work,” said ANU vice-chancellor professor Brian Schmidt.
