Central UCL Clusters (ARC)

UCL's Advanced Research Computing Centre (ARC) hosts a range of computating facilities including several large clusters, documented on the UCL Research Computing Documentation web site.

  • Myriad is designed for high I/O, high throughput jobs that will run within a single node rather than multi-node parallel jobs.
  • Kathleen is a compute cluster designed for extensively parallel, multi-node batch-processing jobs, having high-bandwidth connections between each individual node.
  • Young is the compute cluster for the UK National Tier 2 High Performance Computing Hub in Materials and Molecular Modelling.
  • Michael is an extension to the UCL-hosted Hub for Materials and Molecular Modelling, delivering computational capability for the Faraday Institution, a national institute for electrochemical energy storage science and technology.
