Dual SMP Myrinet Linux
cluster |
| Blackbear is for
general use as a development and production parallel machine. It
is a high bandwidth, low latency interconnect machine. It is very
good with jobs that require a lot of message passing between the
processors. Blackbear can be used for classes. "Embarrassingly
parallel" appelettes that do not require a HBLL interconnect
should use Cochiti, or utilize the Condor Job Submission Capability
to submit jobs on the Turing Cluster or RCDE boxes. |

SMP Linux |
| The
Turing Cluster is a group of 12 machines that serve dual purposes.
The cluster acts as workstations for workshop attendees and also
as a computation engine for naturally parallel jobs. These jobs
are scheduled through Condor, which migrates the jobs to other machines
when the cluster is used for a workshop. |

is the hardware side of a research project between AHPCC and IBM
Research. A cluster of 32 processors (8 4-way NetFinity nodes) is
joined together with a cluster of 32 processor Winterhawk machines
with a Scalable Graphics Engine (SGE) to create a parallel computing,
rendering and displaying environment. Access is allowed only to
users who have been approved for the project. Please contact Dr.
Bob Ballance for more information. |
