Computing Resources

|

| CPU Cores | GPU Cards | CPU Cores | GPU Cards | |
| IceCube | Minimal: 24
Typical: 300 Maximal:10000 |
Cluster upgrade expectation: ~ 1000 Cores for IceCube-Gen2 |
Cluster upgrade expectation: ~ 300 GPUs for IceCube-Gen2 |

| PINGU | Minimal: 8
Typical: 20 Maximal: 85 |

While the resources exclusively allocated for IceCube are small, a very large pool of shared resources can and are being used, mostly for IceCube analysis (CPUs) and PINGU analysis (GPUs). With the coming upgrade of the computing cluster (Mogon-II), a significant increase in resources (both dedicated to IceCube as well as shared) is expected.
