Baltasar cluster is on!
May. 25, 2012
Baltasar "Sete-Sóis" is the main character from José Saramago's novel "Memorial do Convento" (English title: "Baltasar and Blimunda"). It is a story about dreams, hard work and passion in life and in science; we thought it is also an appropriate nickname name for our dear supercomputer, a machine which is going to be solving the mysteries of Einstein's equations, our own passion.Baltasar is part of the "DyBHo" ERC Starting Grant awarded to Prof. Vitor Cardoso, to study and understand dynamical black holes. <a href="http://blackholes.ist.utl.pt/wiki/index.php/Baltasar_Sete_Sois">More details here</a>
