Ton Duc Thang University introduces the Journal of Information and Telecomunications (JIT) and High Performance Computing (HPC)

On the afternoon of 22 March, 2017, Ton Duc Thang University (TDTU) introduced the Journal of Information and Telecomunications: JIT). JIT is the first journal to be internationally published online by English by Taylor & Francis (UK).

JIT is a peer-reviewed international journal, which is available free of charge and publishes high-quality scientific articles in the fields of information technology and telecommunications; and is released in four annual issues. Each issue features a minimum of six international scientific articles. The quality of the articles published in the Journal is the same as those published within the SCOPUS Catalog. TDTU is the sole founder, owner and sponsor of the magazine. JIT aims to be listed on the ISI and SCOPUS journal lists within three to five years of the first issue. Thus, the birth of JIT is a milestone in TDTU's scientific and technological activities.

On the same day, TDTU also inaugurated its High Performance Computing (HPC) initiative. Investment in high performance computing is as part of the plan to build a TDTU Computing Center at TDTU. The University’s Computing System is a university-wide system that specializes in digitization (or infomatization), which is responsible for various functions including the archiving of critical university information; high performance computing operations; solving multiple complex computational problems in university management and administration; connecting the integrated information systems and resources of the university; improving the efficiency of resource exploitation; as well as administrating and securing its information-related security resources. The total investment earmarked for the HPC system is $2 million, to be deployed in 3 phases.
