The Scientific IT core facility provides service to DCEXS labs and other UPF centers. The researchers are provided with high-performance computing cluster for projects in next-generation sequence analysis, molecular dynamics, mathematical modeling, image analysis, proteomics, etc.

 

Services

The Department's cluster is a shared HPC (high-performance computing) environment serving the departmental research community with diverse research requirements.

 

Also, we have two different systems for data storage:

  • A traditional NFS for generic use.

  • A high-performance storage system (GPFS) for computing use.

These systems are connected with all our infrastructure.

Moreover, we offer different additional services:

  • Hosting of additional research systems within a virtual cluster system.

  • Data center server maintenance.

  • Installation of scientific machine equipment within our own facilities. This offer includes the maintenance of equipment as well as it's secure storage.
