About us
(För information om NAISS på svenska se denna sida.)
The National Academic Infrastructure for Supercomputing in Sweden (NAISS) is an infrastructure organisation for high-performance computing, storage, and data services for academic users in Sweden.
NAISS is the largest and most widely used research infrastructure in Sweden, with more than 7,600 users at some 30 universities and research institutes in 2023. We offer a qualified and decentralised support in cooperation with other universities to help users get maximum output from our resources.
We are currently in the process of procuring a new supercomputer, Arrhenius, which will be installed in Linköping. It is projected to be up and running in 2025. This is a major investment that will significantly boost the Swedish HPC capacity and make Sweden a full member of EuroHPC, a joint initiative between European countries and private partners that aims to put Europe at the forefront of supercomputing.
NAISS is hosted by Linköping University. Our budget for 2023 was SEK 150 million. We are funded mainly by the Swedish Research Council, but also by our 12 partner universities:
- Chalmers University of Technology
- Karolinska Institutet
- Linköping University
- Linnaeus University
- Luleå University of Technology
- Lund University
- Royal Institute of Technology / KTH
- Stockholm University
- Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences
- Umeå University
- University of Gothenburg
- Uppsala University
