Research Technologies Presentations

To stimulate interest and dialogue between Indiana University's research computing community and UITS's Research Technologies division, monthly round table discussions will be held on the IUB and IUPUI campuses.


Research Technologies Fall Update

Whether you're new to IU or returning, the Research Technologies (RT) division of UITS welcomes you. RT maintains some of the most powerful supercomputers in the world, as part of a comprehensive strategy which includes computers, data storage systems, data collections, instruments and sensor networks, and technical support.

As we head into fall, we'll take an updated look at Research Technologies' research compute systems which include the Big Red and Quarry supercomputers, High Performance Storage Services, the Data Capacitor, the Quarry Gateway Hosting Service and the TeraGrid. For those of you new to IU, we'll have a general overview of these resources, how to access them, simple examples of common usage patterns, and an inventory of available support services. Following the overview we'll discuss the changes that occurred over the summer and those that are planned for the coming months, specifically the equipment move into the new IU Data Center coming up in October. System administrators will provide information on what you need to do now in order to minimize the disruption of your research activities during the week-long outage.

Please join us on Wednesday, September 23rd for an overview of these systems and an opportunity to speak with the sytem administrators and project managers.

What: Research Technologies Roundtable
When: Wednesday, September 23rd, 12:30-1:30pm
Where: IMU Walnut Room (IU Bloomington); ICTC 497 (IUPUI)
