Welcome to Anselm supercomputer cluster. The Anselm cluster consists of 209 compute nodes, totaling 3344 compute cores with 15TB RAM and giving over 94 Tflop/s theoretical peak performance. Each node is a powerful x86-64 computer, equipped with 16 cores, at least 64GB RAM, and 500GB harddrive. Nodes are interconnected by fully non-blocking fat-tree Infiniband network and equipped with Intel Sandy Bridge processors. A few nodes are also equipped with NVIDIA Kepler GPU or Intel Xeon Phi MIC accelerators. Read more in [Hardware Overview](hardware-overview.html).
