Sciences and methods

Biosciences
The diversity of life, from molecules to populations, and the forces operating this diversity are easier to understand when computational methods are used. In recent years high throughput methods have revolutionized molecular biology, making bioinformatics an integral part of research.

Chemistry
In computational chemistry the research is targeted at molecules by calculating their characteristics and using experimental knowledge. CSC's computational chemistry services include access to a selection of software and databases through which researchers can gain information on molecular structure, reactivity and physical properties.

Electromagnetics
To clarify the function of all optical and electrical devices we need to understand Electromagnetic Field Theory, or electromagnetics. This theory focuses on studying the properties of electromagnetic fields, their formation and effects.

Language research
Linguistics is the scientific study of human language. Human Language Technology is concerned with human language and its use in applications and it consists of Computational linguistics and speech technology as its core.

Mathematical modelling
The purpose of mathematical modelling is to describe the essential features of a phenomenon or a system in a manner which allows the use of various mathematical methods for a deeper analysis. This makes it possible to study for instance the time development of the system or the effect of changing the system parameters.

Nanoscience
Nanoscience is a relatively new multidisciplinary field of science. It studies biological, physical and chemical phenomena, which occurs in nanometer scale.

Numerical methods
A good command of numerical methods is an essential requirement when mathematical models are used to simulate real-world problems on a computer. One must choose the right numerical and computational methods and programming tools for the given problem.

Physics
Physics is the science of matter and its motion, as well as space and time — the science that deals with concepts such as force, energy, mass, and charge. As an experimental science, its goal is to understand the natural world.

Parallel computing
For parallel computing several processors even hundreds of them are used instead of a single one to solve a computation task. Execution time of large computation tasks can be significantly reduced by parallel computing. In addtion, parallel computing makes it possible to increase the problem size.

Statistics
Statistics is a discipline in which characteristics and qualities of natural phenomena are studied based on observation data sets.

Structural analysis
Structural analysis comprises the set of physical laws and mathematics required to study and predict the behavior of structures. The subjects of structural analysis are engineering artifacts whose integrity is judged largely based upon their ability to withstand loads; they commonly include buildings, bridges, aircraft, and ships.

Visualization
Data sets are often large and complex. Visualization makes data comprehensible. Top quality visualizations draw attention and get published as magazine covers.
