Abstract
The UMBC High Performance Computing Facility (HPCF) is the community-based, interdisciplinary core facility for scientific computing and research on parallel algorithms at
UMBC. Started in 2008 by more than 20 researchers from ten academic departments and
research centers from all three colleges, it
is supported by faculty contributions, federal
grants, and the UMBC administration. The
facility is open to UMBC researchers at no
charge. Researchers can contribute funding
for long-term priority access. System administration is provided by the UMBC Division of
Information Technology, and users have access to consulting support provided by dedicated full-time graduate assistants.
