High Performance Computing (HPC)

Lovelace, the Â鶹Æƽâ°æ High-Performance Computing (HPC) System, supports the research enterprise at Â鶹Æƽâ°æ. Researchers who find that standard workstations cannot perform necessary research-related tasks efficiently are encouraged to review HPC system procedures and obtain an .
The Lovelace system, named for computing pioneer Ada Lovelace, provides high-speed parallel/distributed data processing and research-dedicated storage with high input-output capabilities. Please see software and system specifications.
Support for HPC
Â鶹Æƽâ°æ's initial HPC system, Zorro, was installed in summer 2011. Initial funding for the Â鶹Æƽâ°æ HPC System was generously provided by the National Science Foundation Major Research Instrumentation Program Grant (BCS-1039497); the Office of the Provost; the College of Arts and Sciences; the Office of Information Technology; and the Center for Research, Teaching, and Learning. Ongoing support is provided by Â鶹Æƽâ°æ faculty PIs; the Office of Information Technology; and the Center for Research, Teaching, and Learning.
Research Support
Zorro supports research projects in all academic units.
