Platform Grid'5000

The Dolphin project-team has been the Principal Investigator of the Grid5000@Lille project funded (budget: 750K€) within the framework of the CPER. This project consists in building in 2017 a new site of the Grid'5000 platform at Lille. This new site hosted by Inria Lille replaces the old one which was located in the supercomputing center (CRI) of the University of Lille. It consists in a GPU-enhanced computing cluster composed of over 1.000 CPU cores and 60.000 GPU cores corresponding to a 20FLOPS computational power. The Grid5000@Lille project allowed also the recruitment of two engineers for the system and network administration and the software development for two years. Another upgrade with more GPUs is planned for the beginning of 2018.
