Centro de Computación Científica de la Universidad Autónoma de Madrid

The Center for Scientific Computing owns a computational complex, consisting of 700 servers. This amounts to more than 10.400 cores devoted to scientific computing. Part of these servers are the result of agreements with research groups from the campus, by which their servers are hosted at the facilities of the Center for Scientific Computing and in many cases even administrated by its staff. The access to such resources is exclusive to the research group's members.The rest of the servers are entirely accessible by the users of the Center for Scientific Computing, being allowed to execute whichever operations they want via the available queueing system.

Remote access details To access the resources and services of the CCCC, it is enough to be a researcher at the UAM-CSIC Campus of International Excellence. A proposal can be submitted any time and evaluated by our technical staff. However, to use the resources of the RES, it must be done through an open common competitive access. Thus, the application procedure is unique for all the RES nodes and based on criteria of efficacy, efficiency and transparency. This common access guarantees optimal use of the resources available in the network (computing, storage, parallelization, etc. Open to Civis.Tentatively yes, details to be verified in CIVIS
Remote access available No
Open to external users No
Equipment In addition to the basic services of computer supply, CCC-UAM offers advisory services in purchasing, hosting, housing, and has a simulation laboratory where courses are taught whose teaching requires computational power, or where small computational experiments can be performed as a benchmark for real problem. It also offers training courses and other outreach activities. It is also member of the Spanish Supercomputing Network (RES) which is a Unique Scientific and Technical Infrastructure (ICTS) distributed throughout Spain, which aims to support the development of top-quality cutting-edge research.
