Mississippi State University High Performance Computing (MSU-HPC) is funded via a grant from NOAA to support research activities in environmental modeling, including weather modeling and simulation.
The MSU-HPC system consists of two systems, Orion and Hercules. These systems have access to Lustre high-performance file systems for a total of 27 PiB.
The partnership with Mississippi State University provides greater research opportunities with our collaborators and provides millions of compute hours to enhance NOAA’s scientific research. These systems are used by research scientists and students working with NOAA, MSU, and the Northern Gulf Institute, NOAA’s cooperative institute based at MSU, which includes five additional academic institutions in Mississippi, Florida, and Alabama.
