Definition of scientific computing and modelling within the SIP
The SIP offers the possibility to implement mathematical methods to model certain physical processes (atmosphere, ocean, biosphere/atmosphere interface, continental surface) and computer techniques to optimise programming and data access for scientific projects within the OSU.
Skills made available to the OSU
- Atmospheric and oceanographic modelling available to the OSU scientific community. Capacity to simulate certain physical processes such as marine aerosols, continent/atmosphere interfaces, biosphere/atmosphere interface, ocean/atmosphere interface and forcing, pollution and passive tracers, trajectory of celestial bodies, radiation….
- Mathematical analysis and high performance computing methods to meet a research need and exploit data from experiments or observations (e.g. SUNMEX).
- Development of specific codes for research projects or optimisation of existing codes.
- Advice on the choice of software and mathematical methods to be used according to the problem to be addressed and the computing architecture used.
- Installation of scientific computing tools and software on the computing cluster.
- Life cycle management of calculation data (input and output).
- Ensure the documentation, maintenance and publication of the methods and tools developed (http://calcul.osupytheas.fr).
- Support for users in the use of the computing cluster.
- Administration of the OSU computing cluster with the SIP system centre.
- User training for knowledge and skills transfer.
If you wish to use the OSU cluster we invite you to visit https://calcul.osupytheas.fr.
Request for calculation support from the SIP
- Intended audience: All staff attached to the OSU who need support in scientific computing.
- The request for support should be sent to the SIP either by e-mail sip@osupytheas.fr or by ticket https://assistance.osupytheas.fr.
- If possible, consider including the SIP in the project development phase to facilitate our interventions.
