Abstract :
Medium size HPC clusters play an important role in the HPC landscape in that they provide both the training environment for system scalability and a flexible production field for a large class of numerical problems. In this poster we present CRESCO4, the latest medium size HPC cluster purchased by ENEA, in operation since few months. CRESCO4 is part of a family of HPC systems, all integrated within ENEAGRID, a large infrastructure for cloud computing, which includes all the computational facilities installed at several ENEA sites in Italy.
