XSEDE
The Extreme Science and Engineering Discovery Environment (XSEDE) is an organization that administers a network of advanced digital resources and services for scientific research. Following the computing infrastructure [1], XSEDE was founded in 2011.[1] XSEDE is composed of service providers from universities and computing centers across the United States.[2] Users submit project allocation requests for the use of resources and services. These requests are evaluated and granted by the XSEDE Resource Allocation Committee.
Use[edit]
XSEDE is used by scientists and researchers for multi-core high-performance computing (HPC) systems, distributed high-throughput computing (HTC) environments, visualization and data analysis systems, large-memory systems, data storage, and cloud systems. XSEDE has provided computational and data services to more than 6,000 scientists, engineers and students. Through its web portal, XSEDE supported more than 20,000 users. Since 2011, users have acknowledged support by XSEDE and its related computational resources in over 14,000 publications.[3][4][5]
