The Centre for Scientific Computing & Complex Systems Modelling (SCI-SYM) is a centre of excellence in high performance computing (HPC) applied to computational and mathematical models for complex systems in engineering, natural and applied sciences. The team have recently established a HPC research cluster facility here at DCU.

Scientific Computing & Modelling Overview

Modeling Tool for Bacteria Antibiotic Interactions
Software tool that simluates the growth and interactions of bacterial cells with antibiotics, to predict the Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) value of antibiotic required to combat a particular bacterium. The MIC is the key measure of antibiotic efficacy used in clinical assessment.

Financial Risk Analysis Software
Risk analysis software tool for financial markets that has demonstrated improvements in the optimisation of financial portfolios including foreign currency and commodities.

Drug Dissolution Simulation Tool
Multiple computer models and extensive know how in drug dissolution including complex state-of-the-art drug delivery systems. Computational models provide an effective way to simulate hypothetical compacts and environments to reduce expensive in vitro testing.
