Many SDU researchers succeeded in receiving a DeiC national grant for HPC resources during the latest call. This has freed up a lot of local SDU resources, and we are therefore opening a new call to distribute the remaining resources for the first half of 2024.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The current call is continuously open until we have allocated all available resources. We will allocate resources according to a first-come-first-served principle. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Notice that this call is for SDU researchers only. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Notice also that since this call is announced outside of the DeiC cycle of calls, it is NOT a requirement that you have also submitted an application to DeiC.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n For the present call, the following resources are available: <\/p>\n\n\n\n The type 1 system is mainly focused on interactive computing and easy access for users. The system is made of the YouGene cluster hosted at SDU (see cluster specs here<\/a>) and the OpenStack cluster at AAU. SDU researchers can access the cluster resources via their UCloud<\/a> account.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Resources available to SDU for the first half of 2024: 864,000 CPU core hours and 98,000 GPU hours.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Resources available:<\/strong>\u00a01,000,000 CPU core hours.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n This type of HPC system typically has a large number of cores which can be a mix between cost-effective and calculation-efficient units. Type 2 also has the ability to handle large amounts of data and its main focus is on high-throughput performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n There are three type 2 HPC systems available at national level for SDU researchers:<\/p>\n\n\n\n The hardware accessible to SDU users for a type 2 HPC project is shown in the table below.<\/p>\n\n\n\nType1 \u2013 DeiC Interactive HPC<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
Type 2 \u2013 DeiC Throughput HPC<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
