Tycho Technical Documentation
Welcome to the technical documentation for the Tycho high performance computing resources. See the Infrastructure page at NBI for a non-technical overview of the cluster.
Tycho contain in total more than 10,000 CPU cores and 21 data center class GPUs. The cluster is complemented by a 1,300 TB data storage archive and a number of powerful analysis machines used as frontends for the cluster and for pre- and post-prcessing. Current FP64 peak performance is 443 TFlops from the CPUs and 276 TFlops from the GPUs. The GPUs are even more powerful at lower precision having 700 TFlops FP32 performance, and more than 18 PFlops of FP16 Tensor core performance for machine learning workloads.
Tycho is hosted at the High Performance Computing center at the faculty of SCIENCE, University of Copenhagen.
