High Performance Computing Cluster

BECAT, in collaboration with the School of Engineering and UITS, operates a High Performance Computing (HPC) cluster. Access to cluster resources is provided through a prioritized queuing system.  Low priority access to resources is provided at no cost to all UConn researchers. High priority access is available under a “condo model”, where faculty are able to purchase semi-dedicated nodes which get made available to all users when there are unused compute cycles.
