Institute of Medical Science and Technology
Computer Center and Server
Medical data, especially medical signals and images, have high computational complexity that even a multi-core computing machine may not be able to solve. Combining multiple multi-core computing machines called clusters tries to solve problems with high computational complexity. Using all or some of the cores in these clusters simultaneously is known as High Performance Computing (HPC). In recent years, due to the growing number of problems that are impossible or very time consuming to solve with traditional machines, the role of fast processing and specifically high-power processing has become very prominent. Fast processing has made it possible to provide solutions for mass data analysis. Such a capability can make to significant advances in various fields of medicine.
The IMSAT provides permission exclusively to students and researchers to use HPC server for their data analysis. Dr. S. Noorzadeh is responsible for HPC server in the institute.
SARMAD fast processing system: Sarmad processing cluster has 10Tera Flaps processing power. This processing system includes inhomogeneous processors from a combination of powerful CPU and GPU processors. GPUs connected to this system include two GPUs with Tesla architecture called K21 Which has 2822 processors per processor. The processing power of these GPUs is equivalent to Tera Flaps 4 in processes and has a processing power of 0 Tera Flaps in Double precision (DP) processing. This cluster consists of 12 processing nodes with 10 Tera Flaps processing power, which includes powerful CPU and GPU processors. There are also two servers equipped with graphics processors, each of which has a Tesla architecture called the K20X. The processing power of these GPUs is equivalent to 4 Tera Flaps in Single precision processing and has a processing power of 1 Tera Flaps in Double precision processing.
