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 10,000 CPU cores and 13 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 peak performance is 443 TFlops from the CPUs and 93 TFlops from the GPUs.

Tycho is hosted at the High Performance Computing center at the faculty of SCIENCE, University of Copenhagen.
