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.

Now that Phase 1 is back up and running, all parallel programs will have to be recompiled. If you installed your own parallel programs, you will need to recompile them. If you use parallel programs installed by the ACRC, you will need to wait until they have been recompiled and are ready for use. If you have problems running any software on the system please email hpc@rtis.bris.ac.uk.

BlueCrystal Phase 2 status as at 16/11/09: currently shutdown for maintenance work on the system. We expect the system to be unavailable to users for at least the rest of this week.
