Michigan State University established a High Performance Computing Center (HPCC) in the Fall of 2004. This Center’s goal is to provide High Performance Computing support to researchers across campus, both hardware and software.
The present Center configuration consists of a 128 symmetric multi-processor (SMP) system with 576 GB of available RAM with a single image operating system. The center has also installed a 512-core distributed memory cluster utilizing 2.2 GHz AMD dual core processors connected by both Infiniband and Gigabit ethernet. The Center also provides both direct-attached (for the SMP system) and net-attached parallel file system storage for the cluster to researchers utilizing these systems. Long-term storage is available through the university’s main computing center, Academic Computing and Network Services (ACNS).
