Academic Research
Colleges, universities, research institutes, and labs have diverse compute-intensive analysis requirements. Yet in many departments, limits on computing resources constrain the scope, scale, and accuracy of important research. Internal attempts to eliminate these constraints often result in wasted resources and distraction from primary goals.
Digipede Grid-Enables Academia
The Digipede Network distributed computing solution changes the academic research scenario dramatically. Our grid computing software not only enables you to get more out of your existing resources, but also does so without the complexity of home-grown systems or the high expense of other commercial solutions. Learn more about the Digipede Network.
At Digipede Technologies, we also recognize the role of university research in improving the usefulness of our software. We're committed to close relationship with the academic community in a number of ways:
- We work with researchers at leading universities to find significant new applications for the Digipede Network distributed computing solution.
- We encourage collaboration between our staff and our academic partners—not only in computer science, but also in any department with significant computing requirements.
- We provide student internships in both computer science and other fields with significant computing requirements.
- We offer significant academic discounts in licensing our distributed computing software to students, faculty, and staff with valid ID from qualified institutions.
