Infrastructures

Edificio Cervantes

BIFI is currently located in Edificio Cervantes ("Cervantes building"), Corona de Aragón Street, in the City of Zaragoza (Spain). In this section you will find little bit of history of our current location...

Supercomputing Laboratory

The Supercomputing Laboratory hosts most part of our computing resources: our powerful cluster "Terminus", our nodes in European projects related to Grid Computing technologies, massive storage servers, an openSUSE mirror...

Laboratory of Electronics

In this laboratory we work in the development of dedicated computers based on programable logical devices.

Laboratory of Biochemistry

Experimental researchers are working on protein expression and purification, protein stability and folding, protein-ligand and protein-protein interactions and high throughput screening of chemical libraries.

Crystalography Lab

Protein crystallographic structures are determined with our own X-ray diffractometer.

3D Visualization Lounge

BIFI has an stereo 3D visualization system designed by ourselves...

Videoconference Room

Our researchers have at their disposal a room properly set up to hold videoconference meetings through the Internet.

CAESARAUGUSTA

BIFI manages CAESARAUGUSTA, node in Aragón of the "Red Española de Supercomputación" (Spanish Supercomputing Network), catalogued by MEC (Spanish Ministry of Education and Science) as a "Instalación Científica y Tecnológica Singular (ICTS)" (special scientific infrastructure).
With its 4,5 TeraFLOPS of computing power, CAESARAUGUSTA is currently one of the most powerful Spanish supercomputers and the first in Aragón.
