Known Parallel Codes

List of Known Parallel Codes at ZIH HPC

With the introduction of new NHR templates for the detailed project description of NHR Normal and Large HPC projects on 1st Oct 2025, it is mandatory to include a scaling analysis for the proposed simulation codes. An exception is made for those programs and software that are known to run efficiently in parallel on our system. In the following, we provide a list of codes which do not require a scaling analysis to be conducted within your proposal.
