“Parallel computing brings together advanced software and processors that have multiple cores or engines, which when combined can handle multiple instructions and tasks simultaneously.”

The two companies will provide $20 million (approx. £10 million) in combined funds to the two facilities, which were selected from over 25 institutions researching in the field.
