We have new monitors in 175 Tan Hall. The commands icon_bigger or gv_resize may help optimize your experience. gv_resize should be used when GV6 is not running. Please report bugs.
Tiger is our new cluster. It is 5x the power of our old cluster (Dino). Job submission scripts now point to Tiger. Dino's nodes are now merged with Tiger. These small nodes on Tiger are named cubs. Many small jobs will use the cubs automatically but you can also request them directly. Recommended RAM and number of core settings have changed for many programs. See details of individual programs on these web pages.

Email the Facility Director, Dr. Kathleen Durkin, for more information.Technical consulting is available on project feasibility, equipment and software use. The MGCF is a research resource in computational chemistry and scientific visualization for over 50 research groups in the College of Chemistry and the wider campus community.
We provide high-performance
computer graphics and computing resources for research and educational
uses in chemistry and related disciplines. The facility was founded in 1990 with NIH funding and has since
been supported through NIH, NSF and generous corporate sponsorship.
