Description
The Extreme Science and Engineering Discovery Environment (XSEDE) provides an environment for computing resources, data, and knowledge to be shared by researchers worldwide. High-performance and high-throughput computing resources, including large memory nodes and GPUs, as well as data storage and transfer services, facilitate collaborations across multiple institutions for creating and analyzing large data. XSEDE also provides resources to host Science Gateways, which provide higher level interfaces for users to access data, software, and computing resources. Examples of XSEDE Gateways include portals for accessing software for analyzing variability in biological shape, a repository of mathematical formulae, and resources to perform quantum chemistry and molecular dynamics computations. Additional cyberinfrastructure expertise is made available through XSEDE's Extended Collaborative Support Services (ECSS), which supports meaningful collaborations with experts in a variety of areas, including performance analysis, I/O optimization, data analytics, etc. Through these and other resources, XSEDE is a prime tool for the collaboration of scientific researchers.
