| − | == Organisation ==
| |
| − | | |
| − | Swegrid is a computational grid consisting of 600 computers distributed over six sites throughout Sweden:
| |
| − | | |
| − | * Lunarc, Lund
| |
| − | * C3SE, Göteborg
| |
| − | * NSC, Linköping
| |
| − | * PDC, Stockholm
| |
| − | * Uppmax, Uppsala
| |
| − | * HPC2N, Umeå
| |
| − | | |
| − | Access to SweGrid is granted through the Swedish National Allocations Committee (SNAC). There are two types of allocations:
| |
| − | | |
| − | * Medium size allocation - Granted directly by the SweGrid technical coordinator.
| |
| − | * Large size allocation - Granted on a peer-review procedure through the SNAC committee.

| − | == Resources ==
| |
| − | | |
| − | At the moment the SweGrid resources consists of 6 clusters with approximately 3000 cores connected through the 10 GigE SUNET network.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Each node has a 2 quad core 2.67 GHz Xeon processor with 16 GB RAM and an 250 GB 7200 rpm SATA local disk.
| |
| − | | |
| − | The nodes within each cluster are connected by gigabit Ethernet.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Each cluster has approximately 100 TB of short-term storage available as session and grid-cache.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Swegrid is designed mainly for [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-throughput_computing high-throughput computing], to quickly process large numbers of loosely coupled non-parallel computations. This is in contrast to most of the current national computation resources, like Neolith, Akka and Lindgren, which are designed to run a smaller number of large, parallel jobs.

| − | == Applying for time ==
| |
| − | | |
| − | Researchers associated with a Swedish academic institution may apply for time on SweGrid resources. Applications for resources should be directed to [http://www.snic.vr.se/apply-for-resources SNAC].
| |
| − | | |
| − | For user support, please contact [mailto:support@swegrid.se support@swegrid.se]. You will receive an automatic confirmation containing a trouble ticket number, and a Swegrid techician will shortly reply to your questions.
