Computing Core

计算核心。计算核心支持MPRC附属教师和学生研究人员以及其他MPRC核心的研究计算需求。2011年夏天，Computing Core完成了向连接到园区Active Directory的Windows Seven 64位台式机的过渡。多年来（2009年， 2010年，2011年），核心还升级了其核心计算服务器，这些服务器被研究生和教师用于CPU和内存密集型工作，并部署了几个新的多核服务器，并为使用大型数据集和密集模拟的研究人员配备了大量内存。核心 还虚拟化了许多资源，特别是用于安全数据集和个人教师项目的服务器。核心小组面临的重大挑战是充分解决机密数据集问题。2009年，安全保密数据飞地得到扩大，计划在2011-2012年进一步扩大。

Computing Core. The Computing Core supports the research computing needs of MPRC-affiliated faculty and student researchers, as well as other MPRC Cores. In the summer of 2011, the Computing Core completed the transition to Windows Seven 64-bit desktops connected to the campus Active Directory. Over the years (2009, 2010, 2011), the Core also upgraded its core computational servers, which are used by graduate students and faculty for cpu- and memory-intensive jobs, and deployed several new servers with multiple cores and equipped with large amounts of memory for researchers who use large datasets and intensive simulations. The core has also virtualized many of its resources especially the servers used for secure datasets and individual faculty projects. The Core's significant challenge is to adequately address the issue of confidential datasets. In 2009, the secure confidential data enclave was expanded, and further expansion is planned in 2011-2012.
