Expanding access to high performance computing at Wake Forest University through Open OnDemand

Wake Forest University, a private liberal arts institution located in Winston-Salem, North Carolina, has embraced Open OnDemand as a transformative tool for integrating high performance computing (HPC) into the academic experience—particularly for undergraduate students. With an enrollment of approximately 8,000 students and a strong emphasis on teaching and student engagement, Wake Forest has developed a model that makes advanced computing tools not only accessible but embedded within the classroom. 

Eindhoven University of Technology builds connection through Open OnDemand

At Eindhoven University of Technology (TU/e) in the Netherlands, high performance computing (HPC) is an integral part of discovery and innovation. From fluid dynamics and mechanical engineering to AI modeling and chemical simulations, researchers depend on powerful computing resources to accelerate their work. But for many, the steep learning curve of traditional command-line access stood in the way of getting started.

Over the last few years, the global high performance computing (HPC) community’s adoption of the Ohio Supercomputer Center’s (OSC) Open OnDemand platform has skyrocketed. With more research computing professionals discovering the benefits of offering a web browser portal to their HPC resources, usage has increased to more than 2,100 locations in 100 countries.

For Sydney Decker, evolution isn’t just a topic from a biology textbook—it’s the foundation of her scientific curiosity. A postdoctoral researcher in the College of Arts and Sciences at The Ohio State University, Decker has been driven by one overarching question since the beginning of her undergraduate career nearly 10 years ago.
