Classroom HPC Resources

As the fall semester comes to a close those teaching need to start thinking about what resources they will need for their winter offerings.  Many may not realize that there are many options for using HPC resources in courses with no cost.

• LSA budgets the use of Flux, the on campus cluster
• Many Departments also provide Flux funding, contact ARC for details
• XSEDE Provides education allocations at no cost
• Amazon and Microsoft support teaching on their Clouds

Depending on what is being taught, most classes would be served by the above. Other organizations also provide classroom/teaching acess such as; NSF Blue Waters, and DoE NERSC.

Any questions about the difference resources can be directed to ARC at hpc-support@umich.edu.  We can provide consulting, guidance, and support.  This includes guest demo and training lectures in your classroom.
