Collaborating to Reimagine High Performance Computing in the Region
Investing in Idaho’s future.
Mission
C3+3 is a statewide collaboration of the Idaho Universities and the Idaho National Laboratory (INL) to develop a regional educational and research ecosystem within the context of statewide high-performance computing (HPC). The C3+3 collaboration informs statewide academic and research cooperation milestones in HPC and cyberinfrastructure.
“What can we do together that we can’t do independently?”
