Context
The Sophia Antipolis research center of the French National Institute for Computer Science and Automation (Inria) has an experimental and evolutive computing platform.
This platform relies on a cluster computing approach : several generations of high performance servers are combined to provide heterogeneous parallel architecture. These computational nodes are arranged in sub-clusters each of them being associated to a particular interconnection technology.
This platform is evolutive in the sense that computational nodes will change in numbers and types in order to follow the rapid technology evolution for servers and high performance networks.
Usage
The platform is open for members of all Inria teams. Accounts can also be opened for academic and corporate partners of Inria Sophia research center teams.
It can be used for both parallel computations, GPU computation and sequential jobs, etc.
