Within a year since Salomon was put into operations, 435 projects for 448 users have been successfully solved using this supercomputer. As part of the process, more than 135 million core hours, which is more than 3,800 years of continuous operation of a laptop with four very powerful cores, have been spent. Its 2 PETAFLOPS of theoretical peak performance are utilized by scientists such as chemists, astrophysicists, or mathematicians as well as mechanical engineers.
