CCG PhyloCluster upgraded

The CCG PhyloCluster has been successfully upgraded from 88 cores to 184 cores with the addition of 12 Intel Xeon Nehalem processors. We have increased the RAM for the original 11 Apple Xserve nodes (88 cores) to 8GB RAM per node and we have added 12GB RAM to the 6 new Nehalem nodes.

 

We have update the PhyloCluster OS to Snow Leopard, we have improved the iNquiry web User Interface (UI) for MrBayes and RAxML and we have added BEAST, Phylip, MAFFT and GARLI to the list of applications. For a complete list of applications see our iNquiry page on our new website.
