Project Overview

CAST’s ongoing collaboration with the University of Arkansas’ High Performance Computing Center (HPCC) is helping to identify large-scale geospatial problems that may be solved using very large scale computing systems.  The current resources at the HPCC (Red Diamond and Star of Arkansas) were designed for high performance computation to solve chemistry and physics problems.  However, geospatial problems often require fast access to large, distributed storage systems.  This project will aid in the design and acquisition of just such large scale systems to compliment the new high-performance computer system being designed and developed as part the HPC portion of the CI-TRAIN project . CAST research staff will advise HPCC in the design, acquisition and testing of the new computing resources.
