Stage 1 : Newly Bought HPC systems needed to be integrated as a complete turn-key solution.

Stage 2,  Stage 3 and Stage 4, Stage 5, stage 6: Design, Integration & Implementation to the existing system

Informatics Institute, providing graduate level education and research in all dimensions of human development for information technology applications, is an Istanbul Technical University (ITU) unit.

The mission of Informatics Institute is to build an interdisciplinary platform which will promote research and education in all application areas of information technologies.

ITU-II is one of the leading institution in information technologies. It is the predecessor of ITU (UYBHM) NHPC.  First HPC efforts has been fulfilled  for ITU-II in the body of ITU.

CompecTA Ltd. has played several roles and take responsibilities establishing the HPC infrastructure in several projects within the organization. For those succession of projects, CompecTA has fulfilled the obligations such as, HP-SFS20 PFS, Os Deployments, Performance Network Configurations, etc…
