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 5040-core Linux Xeon/X86_64 cluster (Pegasus), a 576-core IBM p5-575 cluster (Ares) and a 240-core Linux Xeon Cluster (Kronos) are 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 Pegasus cluster documentation, Ares cluster documentation or Kronos cluster documentation for more information.
