Astronomy Clusters
The astronomy department owns and maintains two Beowulf Computing Clusters, Hyades and Pleione.
Hyades
Hyades is a 24 node HPC Cluster optimized for parallel computing. Hyades offers InfiniBand as well as Gigabit ethernet networking.
Pleione
Pleione is an 8 node HPC Cluster optimized for embarrassingly parallel (single-threaded) jobs. The only network available to Pleione is Gigabit ethernet.
For More Information
For more information, please consult the Hyades Owner's Manual on the left side of this page. This PDF will cover in detail how to access and use the two clusters.
