NeSI provides a range of services, people, expertise, and information to help computational research projects become reality

NeSI Case Study Alexis Marshal University of Waikato

Parallel processing for ocean life

"We contacted NeSI because we were going from trying to assemble 100,000 individual 150 nucleotide base sequences, to trying to assemble 1.4 billion. We were having computational issues with memory, but also time."

NeSI Case Study Jon Tunnicliffe University of Auckland

NeSI support helps keep NZ rivers healthy

"It’s been helpful to have routines optimised through NeSI assistance... it’s easier for students and researchers to put their data into the model, experiment with the governing parameters, and then observe what comes out of it."

Kendall Clements NeSI Case Study Endeavour Fund

Making waves in global food production technology

“The molecular work associated with this research generates huge amounts of data, and NeSI’s resources provide critical computing infrastructure.”
Subject: 
Oliver Stevenson case study

Modelling the careers of cricket players

“Using NeSI allows us to analyse a larger number of players, in a shorter space of time.”
Subject: 
LFRic UK Met Office Case Study

The development of next generation weather and climate models is heating up

The LFRic development effort involves international partners from New Zealand, Australia, the United States, Korea, and India.
