Description of Service work

We generated DeepCore/PINGU MuonGun files and with our 10 card GPU farm. PI Koskinen continues as co-convenor of the low-en/Oscillation working group. NBI is responsible for refining and maintaining the correlated noise simulation, which is a major factor in improving sensitivity to the lowest energy regions. Morten and Jason have conducted numerous interviews as well as local MasterClasses on offer to regional High School classes.

Due to offsite and remote access issues there is additional work in order to get the necessary glide-ins necessary for automated simprod production.
 
We have 10 K20 cards with the following setup.
 
- 2x E5-2650v2 (8 core, @2.6 GHz, 10% faster than E5-2670)
- 64GB memory
- Max 4x Nvidia K10 GPUs, full bandwidth (16x PCIe 3) simultaneously to all GPUs.
