North Carolina State University installs 240 Core "Murgas" Ace HPC Cluster.
Take a minute to review our most recent case studies...organizations like these are inspirational.
Working together with our customers, these strategies represent several great ways to lower costs and get more performance bang for the buck.
Ace provides Linux Cluster to support Quantum Chemistry Research at NCSU.

"The system we purchased from Ace Computers is an ideal setup for quantum chemistry calculations using a variety of commercial as well as custom-made codes. Some of the codes we use can only run as shared-memory parallel programs, while others ran across the nodes. Our calculations are often memory-bound and some create large temporary files on the compute nodes, making a lot of memory and a large disk a necessity. Having a rack cluster with several nodes, high density of cores per node, 2GB RAM/core and at least 1TB disk on each compute node, gives us the flexibility we need in our research.", notes Elena Jakubikova, leader of the Jakubikova Research Group at North Carolina State University. |
