Infrastructure & Services

The research area Scientific Computing provides access to local, national and international high-performance computing systems. In addition, the VisLab 1669 offers the opportunity to visualize complex data sets and processes in 3D and in virtual space.

LEO5, LEO4, LEO3e und LCC3

The local compute clusters LEO5, LEO4 und LEO3e are available to all researchers at the University of Innsbruck (how to apply). The ​​​LCC3 system offers lecturers the opportunity to use a functional high-performance computer in the classroom, so that students can easily gain their first experience with such a system.   

Visual Interaction Lab 1669

The VisLab will cease operation at the end of December 2025. Please ensure you back up or transfer all your data beforehand. Note that intermediate operation is provided as an 'as is' service. Errors due to old hardware are likely and cannot be fixed anymore.

The Visual Interaction Lab 1669 offers users state-of-the-art data analysis with a visualization wall (5K resolution and stereoscopic 3D display on 3 x 1.7 meters) and VR goggles. The goggles and wall are integrated with Three10's ThreePort presentation software and can be used together - allowing a wide audience to follow the actions being performed through the VR goggles. If you are interested, please contact scientific-computing@uibk.ac.at.   

Austrian Scientific Computing

As members of the Austrian Scientific Computing (ASC), Innbruck researchers have access to Austria's most powerful supercomputers: VSC-4 and VSC-5 (­​​​​​​how to apply). 

LEONARDO

Through the EuroHPC Joint Undertaking, researchers in Innsbruck have the opportunity to submit projects to LEONARDO, the second fastest supercomputer in Europe and the sixth fastest in the world. If you are interested, please contact scientific-computing@uibk.ac.at.
