Platforms

Grid'5000 (https://www.grid5000.fr/) and Meso Center Ciment (http://ciment.univ-grenoble-alpes.fr/)

We have been very active in promoting the factorization of compute resources at a regional and national level. We have a three level implication, locally to maintain a pool of very flexible experimental machines (hundreds of cores), regionally through the CIMENT meso center (Equipex Grant), and nationally by contributing to the Grid'5000 platform, our local resources being included in this platform. Olivier Richard is member of Grid'5000 scientific committee and Pierre Neyron is member of the technical committee. The OAR scheduler in particular is deployed on both infrastructures. We are currently preparing proposals for the next generation machines within the context of the new university association (Univ. Grenoble-Alpes).
