To realize the main purpose of the project and execution of scientific tasks, we use high performance computing systems with low latency communications,such that include graphics cards (from manufacturers such as NVIDIA) and/or co-processors (with technology the MIC of Intel) to accelerate speed up calculations. The following HPC systems are used:
High-performance computing system - Avitohol in the TOP500 list (389-th place, November 2015) .
150 HP Cluster Platform SL250S GEN8 servers with 2 Intel Xeon E 2650 v2 CPUs and 2 Intel Xeon Phi 7120P coprocessors | |
