👉 Nevada computing refers to the high-performance computing (HPC) infrastructure and services centered in the Las Vegas Valley, primarily at the University of Nevada, Reno (UNR) and the University of Nevada, Las Vegas (UNLV). This region has become a hub for supercomputing due to its unique advantages, including abundant renewable energy sources like solar and wind power, which reduce operational costs and environmental impact. The area hosts several supercomputing facilities, such as the National Energy Research Scientific Computing Center (NERSC) and the Nevada Advanced Computing Center (NACC), which provide researchers with access to cutting-edge computational resources. These facilities support a wide range of scientific and engineering applications, from climate modeling and materials science to genomics and artificial intelligence, fostering innovation and collaboration across various disciplines.
