Experiment with the Principles of Supercomputing Through an Educational Videogame
Why is the supercomputer at MSU so great? The secret is parallel processing, which allows MSU's supercomputer to perform multiple tasks simultaneously, while a typical laptop can only perform a small number of tasks concurrently. Discover more about parallel processing with this engaging, interactive, and hands-on "Raspberry Pi Supercomputer" demonstration. Try your hand at our instructive game on a simulated supercomputer to see how much you can increase performance with parallel processing!
