Computing resources The CAMP Computing
Facility houses both a massively paralell cluster containing 16 nodes
(each 2.8 GHz with 1 GB RAM) controlled by a main high performance
symmetric multiprocessor machine with 1 TB harddisk space and a Dual
Alpha machine (two 667 MHz processors with 4096 MB memory and 300 GB
disk) using Red Hat
Linux release
7.3 (Valhalla) and 7.0 (Guinness), as operating systems respectively.
There is also a Microsoft
Windows NT cluster using 4 Pentium Pro and Pentium machines which
can be accessed from X-windows platforms. The cluster is connected to
outside computational facilities by a GMU T1 line which is a part of
the high-speed Internet network. We use Sun Microsystem's
Grid
Engine software, a
fruit of the SunSource.net's
open source community, an effort to facilitate the adoption of distributed computing
solutions. The following is a list
of atmospheric simulation systems and other software packages that we
actively use: See the CAMP
