  1. Obtaining Supercomputing Accounts on NSF CiP Resources Tom Grzelak Office of Instructional and Research Technology

  2. NSF Supercomputing History <1985 Funds HPC at university-level 1985-6 Establish 5 Supercomputing Centers - Cornell, NCSA, PSC, SDSC, JVN-P - JVN-P closes in 1990 1997 Partnerships for Advanced Computational Infrastructure (PACI) - Nat Computational Science Alliance - NCSA - Nat PACI – SDSC - Partnerships to develop tools, apps, architecture, data, etc

  3. NSF Supercomputing History 2000 First Terascale Computing System - PSC “LeMieux” (6 TF) 2001 Teragrid – Distributed Terascale Facility - NCSA, SDSC, Argonne, CalTech (11.6 TF) 2002 Extensible Teragrid Facility - Added PSC “LeMieux” + Improvements (20 TF) 2003 ETF Improvements - ORNL, Indiana, Purdue, TACC (40 TF) 2005 PACI becomes Cyberinfrastructure Partnership (CiP)

  4. CiP Resources www.ci-partnership.org Computational Resources Non-TeraGrid: SDSCx4, NCSAx4 TeraGrid: 8 partners Visualization Resources (RAM, H/W, S/W) Data Resources (mysql,db2, LT storage, special filesystems)

  5. CiP Resources Software Availability support for many common software tools. search engine for your particular package.

  6. Getting CiP Accounts Eligibility - Faculty/Researcher/Post-Doc Types of Allocations
