CIT - HPC Core Facility (http://hpc.nih.gov)
With over 20,000 compute cores and five petabytes of storage, Biowulf is
the largest high performance computing (HPC) system at NIH. As the demand
continues to outpace the technology infrastructure, NIH has made
increasing the capabilities of Biowulf a mission-critical, high priority
initiative. The development of a HPC Core Facility will provide increases
in computing capacity, data storage capacity, storage bandwidth, data
transfer bandwidth, and will allow for a state of the art batch queuing
system. This HPC Core Facility will vastly increase the ability of NIH's
researchers to apply HPC technology to new challenges and research
questions crucial to the mission of NIH and the IRP. Additionally, it
will enable data sharing and scientific collaboration through central
location data. Visit our booth and learn about this exciting initiative.
