Hebrew University Multi-Cluster Campus Grid (HUGI)

HUGI is a production multi-cluster organizational grid consisting of 15 MOSIX2 clusters with over 400 nodes (~650 CPUs). Most clusters are private, belonging to research groups in Computer Science, Chemistry, Life-Sciences and the Medical School. Four clusters are made of workstations in student labs. Idle workstations are used to run guest processes from the private clusters on the condition that whenever a student logs in, all guest processes are moved out instantly from that workstation.

Sample Third Party Applications Running on HUGI

  • BLAST - genome search.
  • PSI-BLAST - iterative sequence-profile search for protein sequences using massive biological sequence databases.
  • MATLAB - a language and interactive environment for algorithm development, data visualization, data analysis and for running computationally intensive tasks.
  • PsiPred - prediction of protein secondary structure.
  • Q-Chem - study of structure, charge distribution and dynamics in molecular-size electronic components.
  • Rosetta Code - predicting the structure of protein complexes.
  • SimpleScalar - modeling applications for program performance analysis, micro-architectural modeling and hardware-software co-verification.
  • WRF - weather research and forecasting simulations.
