We have raised the hard-soft limits of the hex cluster to 4864. The implication is that users normally have access to 48 cores, however when the cluster is not heavily loaded this limit will be automatically raised to 64. The…

A reminder to our users that currently the maximum core limit is 32 soft / 48 hard.  This means that at times when the cluster is not very busy users will be able to submit jobs that consume 48 cores…

ICTS HPC is currently processing data captured at Arecibo Observatory: We'll blog more on this project later in September.  In the interim we've added two new nodes to series600A. These nodes will be dedicated to the Arecibo Queue until…

Jonathan Bergh conducted the following benchmarks against our facilities. Tests were run on the HEX 64core AMD 6376 machine to test the scaling of a standardised CFD problem over an increasing no. of cores. The test mesh was a turbomachinery…

Sean Febuary completed his PhD in Applied Mathematics at the University of Cape Town. Brief description of his work: The growth of cosmic structure (e.g. galaxies, clusters thereof) is poorly understood in inhomogeneous cosmological models. Such models were originally proposed…
