Mimesis is a group born in the physics environment to give services in scientific computing. Mimesis is formed by people that work in different scientific fields but have knowledge about scientific computing and are able to program high performance parallel computers which are owned and managed directly by the group. This means that Mimesis can bridge the gap between people having a problem and the machine that can solve it, taking the burden of developing the algorithm, writing the program and executing it on specialised hardware. Mimesis started from the efforts of three physicists, but its aim is to become interdisciplinary as one of the strong points of this group is the capability to understand the problem using the language of the customer.
