UW Medical Physics Beowulf Cluster

UW medical physics department athlon cluster

Home Hardware Software Benchmarks Projects User's Guide History Links	The UW-Medical Physics Beowulf computer cluster currently consists of 24 AMD Athlon based personal computers running Red Hat Linux 6.2 with the 2.2.19 kernel. Each compute node has an 800MHz processor and 512 MB of memory. The computers are interconnected by a private fast ethernet (100 Mbps) network. The software available on the cluster includes the PVM, MPICH, and LAM-MPI message passing libraries, as well as FORTRAN, C, and C++ compilers and the PBS job scheduler. Future plans include installing parallel linear algebra solver packages such as PETSc and ScaLAPACK. Questions about the cluster can be directed to: tdbohm@facstaff.wisc.edu
