Centre for Advanced Data Inference

In the Centre for Advanced Data Inference a new, more powerful compute cluster, Terrawulf II, was commissioned early this year. The new cluster was made possible by NCRIS funding combined with support from RSES. Terrawulf II consists of 96 dual processor dual core 2.8GHz Opteron systems with 8GB of memory per node, connected with Gigabit Ethernet.  Half of the nodes are also connected through higher bandwidth switches, which significantly extend the range of potential applications of the cluster to both `tight’ and `loosely’ coupled codes. The Terrawulf II cluster is integrated into the AuScope grid and used for a broad range of geoscience data processing as well as continuing development of state of the art inversion and data inference software.
