Help:CSDMS HPCC

The CSDMS High Performance Computing Cluster

Hardware

Our System is an SGI Altix XE 1300 with integrated 512 x 3.0GHz/12M/1600MHz/80W E5472 processors, using non-blocking Infiniband Interconnect with 1.152TB of memory, with one head node, 28 compute nodes, 4 compute nodes with heavy memory, associated infrastructure, 72TB/7200RPM/SATA Raid storage, web server 4 x 2.33GHz/8GB RAM E5420 processor. The CSDMS-HPCC (≈ 6Tflops) is configured with two HPC approaches: 1) massive shared memory among fewer processors, and 2) the more typical parallel configuration each running Linux Red Hat with Fortran, C and C++ compilers.
