End of production for PLX and launch of GALILEO

Dear users,

we are happy to announce the important upgrade of our Tier-1 (X86 based) system.
The present system (PLX) will be substituted by GALILEO, a large IBM cluster with an expected linpack performance of about 1 PFlops.
The switchover will take place at the end of January 2015. All running projects on PLX and EURORA will be moved to the new platform.
More details will follow.

We wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year,

HPC User Support @ CINECA
