Initially funded by an MRI grant from the National Sc ience Foundation (OAC1920103) with cost-sharing provided by the Johns Hopk ins Schools of Engineering and Arts and Science\, as well as from the prov ost office\, it replaces the Bluecrab compute cluster that went into produ ction July 2015. The MRI grant allows three institutions use of these reso urces\, Johns Hopkins University\, Morgan State University and NSF’s XSE DE. A “condominium business model” was developed so research groups (P Is) can add compute “condos” to the cluster\, share resources and incr ease the computational capability of the instrument. As of January 2022\, the system has over 35\,000 cores 31 faculty-added condos with additional coming soon. A commitment from several JHU Deans have created a sustainabi lity plan to fund multi-million dollar ‘technology refreshes’ on an on going basis. A faculty-staff oversight committee ensures that there is a c lose relationship between the system administrators\, vice Deans\, and fac ulty users. The net result is a successful adventure in shared governance that provides impressive petascale computing resources that are shared in a manner ensuring load-balancing and hence optimal usage with a personal t ouch that is not possible with larger but more impersonal national superco mputer facilities.\n\nSpeaker(s): Paulette Clancy\, Jaime Combariza\n\nAge nda: \n7:00 pm - Introductions\n\n7:05 pm - Presentation Begins\n\n8:05 pm - Open Q&A\n\n8:15 pm - Close\n\nVirtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/ m/308846 LOCATION:Virtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/308846 ORGANIZER:schulman@ieee.org SEQUENCE:10 SUMMARY:Advanced Research Computing at Hopkins: An Adventure in Shared Gove rnance URL;VALUE=URI:https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/308846 X-ALT-DESC:Description: <br /><div class="page" title="Page 1">\n<div class ="layoutArea">\n<div class="column">\n<p><span style="font-size: 12.000000 pt\; font-family: 'Calibri'\;">The <em>Rockfish</em> High Performance Comp uting Cluster went into production in March 2021.&nbsp\; Initially funded by an MRI grant from the National Science Foundation (OAC1920103) with cos t-sharing provided by the Johns Hopkins Schools of Engineering and Arts an d Science\, as well as from the provost office\, it replaces the <em>Bluec rab</em> compute cluster that went into production July 2015.&nbsp\; The M RI grant allows three institutions use of these resources\, Johns Hopkins University\, Morgan State University and NSF&rsquo\;s XSEDE.
