Project: Purdue University

Description: United Devices is linking 2,300 computers at Purdue University to create a computational grid to perform research that previously was performed on supercomputers. The United Devices Grid MP(TM) platform allows the University to triple the power of its core resources without having to invest in additional hardware. ITaP (Information Technology at Purdue) is using the massive computational power to perform 8,000 to 10,000 genomics and proteomics sequencing runs a day, a volume previously unobtainable without relying on their supercomputing resources. According to representatives at ITaP, there are several possibilities in further utilizing the grid, including sharing CPU cycles with local industry partners in the genomics industry as well as borrowing compute cycles from University affiliates who aren't using them during the evening.
