iVEC currently maintains HPC hardware at each of these three facilities.

• iVEC@ARRC, A 192 CPU SGI Altix 3700 Bx2 high performance computer with 384 GB of memory, 12 TB high-speed disk and an 8 TB tape archive.
• iVEC@UWA, located at The University of Western Australia, has recently retired a 164 processor Cray XT3 computer with 330 GB of memory and 32 TB of very high-speed disk. This is to make way for an exciting new supercomputing resource, watch this space for more information.
• iVEC@Murdoch, based at Murdoch University houses a SGI Altix 1300, called XE and the Pawsey Centre Project's Performance Optimised Data Centre (POD). XE is a water‐cooled, 512 core cluster with 2 GB RAM per core for a total of 1 TB RAM. It has a 10 Gb/sec Infiniband network connecting the 8 core nodes (2 x quad core Xeons) and a 10 TB Lustre filesystem. The POD is an energy-efficient 87.20 TeraFLOPS system (1 TeraFLOPS = one trillion floating point operations per second), using HP ProLiant Blade servers with 1600 of the latest generation Intel® Xeon® 5600 processors, totalling 9,600 cores and with 500 terabytes of high-performance storage all connected via 4x infiniband.
