Whenever you read big announcements and stories about HPC in the press, they tend to concentrate on mega clusters dedicated to solving some of the giant problems of our times. It may be climate modelling, genome research, finding cures for terrible diseases, or unlocking the secrets of the universe. All very worthy causes I'm sure, but chances are your problems are slightly smaller scale, yet still require heroic solutions. Maybe you need to design your new product in half the time, or you need to make your current product 50% more efficient. You might be looking to calculate insurance premium returns, or recover from the global downturn in as short a time as possible.
Whatever you hope to achieve from HPC, the results can be heroic on a personal level, even if it just means you get a well done from the boss!
