HPC2N
High Performance Computing Center North
The Autumn 2016 call for proposals for LARGE allocations of computing time on the High Performance Computing resources of the Swedish National Infrastructure for Computing (SNIC) is open until 17 October 2016.
The allocations are for the period 1 January 2017 - 31 December 2017.
A page for our new cluster "Kebnekaise" has been created. Not much information there yet, but more will follow soon.
The cluster is not yet open for use.
[2016-05-03] The nerve agent sarin causes a deadly overstimulation of the nervous system that can be stopped if treated with an antidote within minutes of poisoning. Today, a ground-breaking study has been published in PNAS, which in detail describes how such a drug works. Researchers at the Swedish Defence Research Agency, Umeå University (Anna Linusson's group, Department of Chemistry at Umeå University) and in Germany are behind the study.
Calculations were done on the supercomputers at the High Performance Computing Center North (HPC2N) at Umeå University.
You are all invited to a free workshop focusing on the capabilities of COMSOL Multiphysics software.
Date: Thursday, April 21st, 2016
Time: 09:00-12:00
Location: Umeå Folkets Hus

The Spring 2016 call for proposals for large allocations of computing time
on the High Performance Computing resources of the Swedish National
Infrastructure for Computing (SNIC) is open until 29 April 2016.
The allocations are for the period 1 July 2016 - 30 June 2017.
Department of Computing Science at Umea University, Sweden invites excellent candidates to apply for postdoctoral and PhD positions. The successful candidate(s) will join NLAFET, which is one of the high-profile extreme-scale computing projects funded by the European Commission within the recent FET-HPC call under Horizon 2020. NLAFET is coordinated by Umea University with international partners from INRIA (France), University of Manchester and STFC-RAL (UK).
NLAFET kick-off was held in the MIT building on Umeå University on 9-10 November 2015.
The aim of the NLAFET project is to enable a radical improvement in the performance and scalability of a wide range of real-world applications relying on linear algebra
software for future extreme-scale systems.
This is an opportunity for users of HPC2N's resources to drop by and have an informal talk with the system operators at HPC2N, ask questions, make suggestions...
Next opportunity will be 2015-11-10, 13:00-14:00: Room NC275 (note changed room).
