Research Computing Examples

High Throughput Computing (HTC)
  • Large amounts of comp. power over a "long" time:
    • Running long jobs!
    • Running the same experiment many (1000s) times, with different inputs.
High Performance Computing (HPC)
  • Large amounts of comp. power over a "short" time:
    • many CPUs simultaneously to run complex models quicker.
  • Many compute-nodes' RAM simultaneously to handle very big jobs.
Data Analysis and Visualization
  • Getting the information out of the vast quantities of data.
