Overview
The High Performance Computing (HPC) core at the Center for Computational Science (CCS), University of Miami (UM), is a newly established university wide resource with a mission to provide the University of Miami academic community with comprehensive HPC resources ranging from hardware infrastructure to expertise in designing and implementing HPC solutions.
Hardware Resources
The computational resources encompass a wide range of processors and system architectures and support several paradigms including massively and embarrassingly parallel applications. At present, a 576 CPU IBM p5-575 cluster and a 224 CPU Linux Xeon Cluster is operational. Each cluster provides 35 TB of Global Parallel File System based storage. The storage architecture is designed to provide high speed access for both computation and presentation to client systems.Software Resources and Support
Numerous compiler suites and software libraires are installed in the system. Please visit the Ares cluster documentation or the Kronos cluster documentation for more information.
The HPC staff can help in assessing and porting applications to the CCS environments. If you need help getting your programs to run, please contact us.
The resources are open to the University of Miami community. The first place to start is this website. Here you will find a new accounts application as well as complete documentation to get you started using the HPC environment at University of Miami.
