ARUZ - Analyzer of Real Complex Systems

ARUZ is a HPC (High-Performance Computing) machine invented at the Lodz University of Technology and built in Bionanopark in Lodz. The novelty of ARUZ consists in its construction, which is based on FPGA devices (Field-Programmable Gate Arrays), not classical CPUs like in standard computers. These fully configurable digital devices are responsible for ARUZ flexibility and efficiency, in terms of speed and power consumption. ARUZ contains almost 2900 PCBs and 26000 FPGAs - all of them ready to solve extremely difficult scientific problems. From that point of view ARUZ is the biggest FPGA-based installation in the world.
