Items available to department The Computer Science department has a secure, modern, climate-controlled server room. The room is equipped with numerous sensors, controls, and backup systems to ensure all servers are continuously operating at peak performance. In addition, there is a separate secure, climate-controlled workspace for graduate students to work directly with servers and equipment, if appropriate.
To facilitate wide ranging research activities, some of the major services provided by the department include a Computer Science Research Virtual Machine cluster (CSRVM) which has the flexibility to create multi-core large scale VM's in a matter of minutes. The core hardware consists of nine (9) 64 core host nodes with 512GB of RAM each. A 10GB low latency SFP+ back-end network interconnecting each node to 91 terabytes of dedicated disk storage.
Computer Science also has a GPU cluster with ten (10) nodes with multiple NVidia P40 and T4 GPU cards throughout. In addition to GPU processing, each node has at least 40 cores and 192GB of RAM. This cluster also utilizes a dedicated Ceph shared file system for redundancy and speed interconnected through a 10GB switch.
In addition, Computer Science has a ten (10) node homogeneous cluster, dedicated to systems research. Each node consists of 48 Intel cores and 256 gigabytes of RAM. The nodes are interconnected to each other and a dedicated 73 terabytes of shared storage via a private 10GB switch.
