An Instrumentation Request for Upgrading a Mid-Size Heterogeneous Computing System Supporting Research and Educational Activities in Computational Dynamics

Abstract

The grant funds were used to update an existing heterogeneous CPU/GPU cluster called Euler [1]. The hardware assets are part of a cluster that is hosted in the Mechanical Engineering building in a climate-controlled room (4170ME),which is 70 feet away from the PI office (room 4150ME). The cluster is managed by a system administrator hired by the PI's lab. There were no salary expenses of any type associated with the W911NF-15-1-0386 project; the system administrator has always been paid from a different funding stream associated with the university. The Euler cluster has experienced almost 100% utilization owing to use in research, educational, and project activities.
