Welcome to the Advanced Computing Research Centre
The Centre has a mission to help establish Bristol University as a world class centre for research into advanced computing systems.
BlueCrystal is the University's High Performance Computing (HPC) machine. We have two systems, BlueCrystal Phase 1 which went live to all users in June 2007 and BlueCrystal Phase 2 in April, 2009. Please refer to About HPC for more information about both machines and details of how to apply for an account.
BlueCrystal Phase 1 status: system currently up and running.
Phase 2 will be shut down on the evening of 14th February to enable the switch over to the new power supply to take place and whilst it is shut down, we will also re-stripe the file system. These two tasks should take about three days and so we expect Phase 2 to be back in production on or around Thursday 18 February.
BlueCrystal Phase 2 status: system currently up and running.
