Parallel Computing Research and Development is taking place on two main nodes.  The first is an Intel Xeon server with a Xeon Phi coprocessor model 3100-P with 57 physical cores.  With hyperthreading the available x86-64 cores is 227.   OpenMP is the main software parallelization technology.  Operating System: CentOS 7.0.

For GPU-based system, we have an Intel Haswell system with a GTX-750ti GPU as the main development server.  It has CUDA and OpenACC development on this node.  Operating System:  Ubuntu 15.10.

All the network configuration and software development of these servers is done by me.

I am currently considering – what would be required to make a compute cluster – but this has not been done yet.
