Supercomputer-based Modeling and Simulation Services
Today there is a wide range of applications requiring supercomputer-based modeling and simulations, ranging
from the design of children’s toys to the modeling of commercial buildings, to workflow simulation in the aerospace
industry, and booming projects in the field of nanotechnologies.. Utilizing a one-stop approach to computer modeling
helps customers greatly reduce project implementation lead-times. The experts at T-Platforms are able to adapt and
scale up a customer’s PC-based models to run supercomputer simulations using the T-Platforms Supercomputer
center. Modeling and simulation projects can be developed as turn-key solutions developed from scratch with just
minimal initial input from the client. The Center of Computation Expertise is the company’s core intellectual asset. It is
comprised of several workgroups with expertise in fluid dynamics, heat and mass transfer, structural analysis, thermal
and power physics, and other disciplines.
Rent The Compute Power or Capacity – When You Need It
For companies with a temporary requirement for high performance computing, or just needing additional computing
capacity, the optimal solution is to rent time on a third party supercomputer. This option from T-Platforms enables
customers to gain access to optimal compute systems, paying only for resources actually used.
Services include:
—— On-demand cluster access
—— Scheduled access to specific hardware and software configurations
—— Estimates of total computational time and cost of required access for all projects
Benefits:
—— Access to updated HPC systems with no need to buy new hardware
—— No operational expenses related to running an in-house supercomputer system
—— Flexible pay-per-hour or pay-per-project usage scenarios
—— Professional technical support, eliminating the need for specifically trained customer IT staff
Rendering support*
Computer graphics and animation studios can remotely access our 4.8TFLOPS rendering farm over a secure
Internet connection. Movie companies, dealing with complex projects spanning an extended period of time, can
have the rendering farm, fully configured and debugged, delivered to their premises to ensure a highly efficient
operation and the fastest-time-to results.
Supercomputer Center Management*
T-Services provides all necessary services for external management of supercomputer systems both on deployment
and operational efficiency levels.

Application Software
—— One option for an on-demand computational
cluster is a single rack cabinet with 12-20
nodes based on the six-core Intel Xeon 56xx
series and AMD 12-core Opteron 61xx series
platform architecture, with a QDR Infiniband
interconnect and an Ethernet-based network,
complimented by Panasas and LSI Engenio
parallel storage systems.
Customers can tackle a wide range of numeric modeling
and virtual prototyping activities using an optimal range
of available on-demand software:
—— Also available is a 50-node dual-socket Intel
Xeon quad-core rendering farm, based on
T-Blade 1 systems and the ActiveStore parallel
file system with 12TB of storage or more.
—— Depending on the complexity and timing
of a specific project, remote access to larger
configurations can be provided as well.
Available systems are operated by university
based HPC centers, equipped by T-Platforms,
and offer mature and secure shared cluster
usage policies
* These services are available only in Russia
