The future of Aysen Region and the benefits will be brought by the future University projected in that area, were some of the issues that Senator Antonio Horvath addressed with researchers of the Center for Mathematical Modeling in a meeting on Monday July 7th. This, in a context where the government is planning three important projects for the southern zone of Chile: the creation of the mentioned regional university, the construction of a high capacity fiber optic to the South and the development of an energy-efficient and ecologically-friendly Advanced Data Center with access to the high capacity fiber optic project.
“Senator Horvath has been a promoter of these governmental initiatives. Then, his visit is very important for us to analyze how we can get involved in these projects” explained Alejandro Jofré, CMM director.
“The willingness of researchers and professors to have projects in Aysen Region because of the born of the new university is very important. We understand this zone as an open lab that can attract researchers from all around the world. Following this idea, this university could be a model for other countries” said Horvath.
After the visit, Horvath visited Leftraru, the new supercomputer of CMM’s National Laboratory for High Performance Computing.
“I’m leaving the CMM very impressed for the the high standards of the researchers who work here. It is a center of international relevancy” concluded the senator.
