The [HPCE
group](https://www.psi.ch/en/awi/high-performance-computing-and-emerging-technologies-group)
is part of the [PSI Center for Scientific Computing, Theory and
Data](https://www.psi.ch/en/csd) at [Paul Scherrer
Institute](https://www.psi.ch). It provides a range of HPC services for PSI
researchers, staff, and external collaborators, such as the Merlin series of
HPC clusters. Furthermore the HPCE group engages in research activities on
technologies (data analysis and machine learning technologies) used on these
systems.
