University of Connecticut Selects SGI Altix as Foundation of New Institute for Supercomputing and Visualization

To initiate its long-planned Connecticut Institute for Supercomputing and Visualization, the University of Connecticut School of Engineering (Storrs Campus) purchased and recently installed two SGI(R) Altix(R) systems from Silicon Graphics (OTC Penny Stocks : SGID).

An 8-processor SGI(R) Altix(R) 350 mid-range server with 8GB of memory will serve as a front-end to a 64-processor SGI(R) Altix(R) 3700 Bx2 supercomputer configured with 64GB of memory. Both systems will interact with the School's SGI(R) Onyx(R) visualization system and a 1TB direct-attached SGI(R) InfiniteStorage TP900 disk array to provide researchers with a seamless computational and visualization platform.

According to the School of Engineering's Ian Greenshields, Associate Dean-Academic Affairs, these two new systems will form the basis of a supercomputing facility that ultimately will become a national center of excellence in supercomputing research and applications.

The Altix systems were installed in early November at the Booth Engineering Center for Advanced Technology, a computing research center operated by the School of Engineering. Faculty from the School of Engineering and elsewhere in the University will rely upon the systems for a diversity of research applications. Following are several examples that illustrate how the Altix systems will be employed in computing-intensive research conducted by the School.

-- Biomolecular and Metabolic Engineering. Due to rapid advances in
sequencing technology, the genomes of numerous organisms have been made
readily available to the research community. Consequently, it is now
possible to create genome scale mathematical models of these organisms
and simulate their metabolic processes. These 'in silico' models may
be used to identify metabolic pathways in a given organism that may be
engineered to carry out processes, such as development of a new
pharmaceutical drug. The models also may be used to identify potential
drug targets in pathogenic organisms, and to determine the best
potential strategy for treating a pathogen. The use of genome scale
modeling permits researchers to identify potential drug targets in
pathogenic organisms, as well as learn how to manipulate beneficial
organisms for the betterment of society. Implementation of these models
can be computationally intensive, especially when incorporating
stochastic phenomena or sub-cellular spatial heterogeneity. With the
Altix systems, the models can incorporate a substantial level of
detail, resulting in more accurate and realistic predictions.
