The BeoPEST and PEST++ codes are run on an in-house high-performance-computing array that provides access to concentrated parallel computing resources to solve complex or computation-heavy problems. This parallel approach enables groundwater modeling and data analysis on a scale that is not otherwise possible using a single computer."
