Here contains some notes that i have compiled with respect to setting up or using OpenPBS.
LSF by Platform Computing
Here are some information that i have on LSF.
Animation Industries and HPC
Animation rendering is a very computationally intensive process that involves large files and a lot of creativity to create. The requirements of a HPC Cluster differs from that in a engineering perspective. Machines used to help render these animations are called render-farms. Below are some notes that highlights some of the things when creating solutions for a render-farm.
Oil and Gas Industries & HPC
The oil industries are divided into Upstream & Downstream activities. Upstream refers to pre-discovery activities & pre-processing activities, while Downstream refers to post-discovery activities & processing activities.
Most computations are done in the upstream activity and can be divided in to 3 main classes.
- Field data collection
- Data processing
- Result dispatch & drilling
The complexities of these activities are described below.
