Background

The [http://www.ifi.uio.no/research/groups/lns/lt.html Language Technology research group] (LT) at the University of Oslo (UiO) is about to start a joint project with the UiO [http://hpc.uio.no Research Computing Services group] (VD), aiming to scale up [http://www.delph-in.net DELPH-IN] technology for efficient use on high-performance computing (HPC) resources. Please see the [http://www.delph-in.net/titan/notur.mar-09.pdf grant application] for additional background.

This page, at least initially (June 2009) only serves project-internal purposes. It is intended to provide the necessary background information on DELPH-IN software and typical use patterns for VD staff, on the one hand, and to document emerging recipes for using DELPH-IN tools on the UiO [http://hpc.uio.no/index.php/Titan TITAN] facilities, on the other hand.

Resource Allocations

The project was granted a resource alloation of 10,000 cpu hours on TITAN for the allocation period 2009.1 (April 1 through September 30, 2009). This allocation is available as account number nn9106k, which should be used in all [https://computing.llnl.gov/linux/slurm/ SLURM] (the queueing system on TITAN) commands. To gain access to these cpu allocations, user accounts need to be registered with the project; please contact StephanOepen for details.
