Laboratory for Parallel Computational Mechanics - 408 EES
The Laboratory for Parallel Computational Mechanics (LPCM) maintains a high performance computing cluster containing 18 Apple Xserves with 36 processors. The Xserves run Mac OS X, which is built upon BSD UNIX. The Xserves are connected to one another via high speed Ethernet through two switches. Members of LPCM run parallel finite element codes and have developed custom software for parallel molecular dynamics simulations. The LPCM cluster is capable of approximately 17 Gflops on scalar code and can achieve much higher performance on vector code.
