The NIH HPC group plans, manages and supports
high-performance computing systems specifically for use by the
intramural NIH community. These systems include
Biowulf,
a 105,000+ processor
Linux cluster;
Helix, an interactive system for
file transfer and management, and
Helixweb, which provides a number of web-based
scientific tools. We provide access to a wide range of computational
applications for genomics, molecular and structural biology, mathematical and
graphical analysis, image analysis, and other scientific fields.
The continued growth and support of NIH's Biowulf cluster is dependent upon
its demonstrable value to the NIH Intramural Research Program. If you publish
research that involved significant use of Biowulf, please cite the cluster.
