UW ARCC is pleased to announce the new HPC environment, MedicineBow (prior working name: Thunderer). This new HPC environment includes new 4th Gen AMD EPYC 9454 compute nodes, and multiple A30, L40S, and H100 GPU nodes. MedicineBow will be available for campus-wide use beginning July 1, 2024. In preparation, UW ARCC is initiating the MedicineBow Early Adopters Program (MEAP) to facilitate a seamless integration of hardware and software, and to promote exceptional scientific research.
The program begins with a Performance Evaluation Phase, focused on assessing applications for their capabilities. Early adoption provides researchers with several benefits, including:
The chance to get a jump start on using the new system with limited competition for resources.
Prioritized support from ARCC staff
Our early adoption program runs from June 1, through June 30th. ARCC will accept applications through Wednesday May 15th, 2024. Applications are open to any applicants without strict prerequisites. To apply, please fill out an application through our portal, here.
The application form will require an abstract associated with your intended work, the technical requirements associated with any computational technologies (if needed), and estimated compute hours.
Thank you!
