Purdue University Selects Intel Xeon Processors for "Steele" - A New 26.8-Teraflop Community HPC Cluster

Overview Purdue University wanted to capitalize on the purchasing power of several research groups to build a powerful shared cluster at a lower cost than multiple departmental clusters and select an industry-standard processing architecture that enables researchers to run a wide array of scientific code. Purdue's Rosen Center for Advanced Computing built "Steele," an 890-node cluster, with the Intel Xeon processor 5400 series. Purdue University's Rosen Center for Advanced Computing (RCAC) changed the way High-Performance Computing (HPC) was done on campus.
