The OU Supercomputing Center for Education & Research (OSCER) is a multidisciplinary center that provides supercomputing education, expertise and resources for OU undergraduate students, graduate students, staff and faculty, as well as their off-campus collaborators. OSCER provides the University of Oklahoma community with High Performance Computing (HPC) infrastructure in education and research facilitation, and furnishes hardware and software resources, technology transfer support, and outreach support.
The services that OSCER provides addresses the needs of researchers in several OU Colleges, including but not limited to Arts & Sciences, Engineering, Atmospheric & Geographical Sciences and Medicine. OSCER’s primary focus is on education and research, with all other activities directed toward supporting these goals.
There is currently no cost for this service.
To be eligible for an account on OSCER computers, a user must be on an education or research project that has, as one of its Principal or Co-Principal Investigators, a faculty or staff member at an Oklahoma institution.
OSCER does not utilize an allocation system. After logging in to OSCER’s resources, users have unconstrained computing time; however, the batch schedulers typically give higher priority to users who have had only limited runtime lately. If you have a compelling special requirement, contact support@oscer.ou.edu.
Details about OSCER’s supercomputing cluster can be found on the High Performance Computing website.
The list of software packages installed on the OSCER systems can be found on the OSCER HPC Software website. Please contact support@oscer.ou.edu if you have questions about licensing restrictions or accessibility of any particular software package.
Details about OSCER’s archival tape library can be found on the OSCER Petastore website.
