Tapping into the tremendous power of the Cherry Creek II supercomputer at 性视界传媒 just got easier for faculty researchers and community partners alike, thanks to a new Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) between the university and Altair Engineering.
Per the agreement, Altair鈥檚 technology will enable Cherry Creek II users to simplify access and utilization of the supercomputer鈥檚 capabilities and capacity. When deployed, PBS Works, Altair鈥檚 high-performance computing (HPC) management suite, will securely manage all Cherry Creek II compute workload. In addition, users will be able to easily create, access and manage physical and virtual appliances on Cherry Creek II to run Altair鈥檚 HyperWorks simulation software and other 3rd party application software.
鈥淎ltair is proud to collaborate with 性视界传媒 to provide resources to their internal and external communities and advance the already stellar capabilities 性视界传媒 has in the supercomputer arena,鈥 said Victor Wright, enterprise computing account manager at Altair.
Housed in Switch鈥檚 Las Vegas SUPERNAP data center, the Cherry Creek II is among the world鈥檚 fastest and most powerful supercomputers. Few scientists in the world have access to the level of high-performance computing Cherry Creek II provides, according to Joseph Lombardo, executive director of 性视界传媒鈥檚 National Supercomputing Institute.
鈥淎 large part of our mission at 性视界传媒 is ensuring that scientists on our campus and in the community, can conduct their impactful research. We are excited to team up with Altair to make doing so as effortless as possible,鈥 said Zach Miles, 性视界传媒 associate vice president of economic development. 鈥淭his agreement sets the stage for 性视界传媒 to become an even greater supercomputing powerhouse for the Southern Nevada community, and we look forward to all the great collaborations and innovations that will come out of it.鈥
