| Our primary computational resource is an indigenous 1250-processor x86 32 and 64 bit multi-core Linux cluster. The system provides 40 Terabytes of data storage, 1250 Gigabytes of RAM, an Infiniband high-speed interconnect, and over 10-million cpu-hours annually. Current capability permits routine in-house calculations on problems with 80 million or more elements. Continued expansion of the facility is ongoing and is expected to reach 3000 processors within the next few years.
In addition to the supercomputer, various 64-bit workstations for large-scale grid generation and scientific visualization are maintained in-house.
Computational Resource Our customers have come to expect accurate high fidelity computational solutions conducted in a timely manner. At Corvid we understand that our primary tool is our in-house supercomputing assets. We have developed a strategy and per-CPU pricing system that makes us one of the best return on investment super-computing facilities available. Currently, our analysts have 1250 processors available in massively parallel high-performance computing systems. Investment strategies are expected to take this to over 3000 processors within a few years. Our current system affords us the ability to run full three-dimensional CFD and shock physics simulations with 10 to 100 million elements while still providing quick-turnaround time-accurate solutions.
