High Performance Computing

The ZIV is providing HPC resources to aid researchers conduct computationally demanding tasks. For this purpose we are hosting the PALMA-II HPC cluster.

In order to gain access to PALMA-II, you have to:

• Register for the group u0clstr at MeinZIV
• Change your main group according to your work group at MeinZIV
• Register at our HPC mailing list
• Read the how-to guides provided on this website

Publications

We kindly ask you to record any publication you made with the help of our HPC systems in the research database with an appropriate note. Instructions can be found here.

Lectures

Once a semester there is a lecture about parallel programming and the usage of our HPC system. This lecture is intended for people with prior knowledge in Linux and C/C++ or Fortran programming. It is not an introductory course, however, if you just want to inform yourself on the basic usage of PALMA-II, you are welcome to join the first day of this lecture.

If you have questions regarding High Performance Computing at the ZIV, you can write to hpc@uni-muenster.de.
