Computing Resources

2016
2017
  CPU Cores GPU Cards CPU Cores GPU Cards
IceCube Minimal: 24
Typical: 300 Maximal:10000
   
 
Cluster upgrade
expectation:
 
~ 1000 Cores for IceCube-Gen2

~ 300 GPUs for IceCube-Gen2

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.

Currently available GPU types:

·   GTX Titan
·   Tesla K20
·   GTX480
