The production part of bwForCluster MLS&WISO is a high-performance compute resource with high speed interconnect. It is intended for compute activities related to research in Structural and Systems Biology, Medical Science, Soft Matter, and Computational Humanities. The hardware is located partly in Mannheim and partly in Heidelberg. Both sites are interconnected by a long-range, low-latency, high bandwidth, Infiniband link effectively forming one single cluster. The system is jointly operated by the Computing Center of the University of Mannheim (UNIT) and the Computing Center of Heidelberg University (URZ).

Submit your planned compute activities to have them assigned to appropriate bwHPC cluster resources.
See bwForCluster Registration for details on the procedure.

New security measures

On 18.06.2021 at 10 AM the following changes to the security policies will take effect:

The following restrictions still apply:

  • Access is limited to IP addresses from within the campus networks of the respective home institutions of our current users. If you are outside of one of these networks (e.g. in your home office), a VPN connection to your home institution has to be established first (see e.g. [1] for Heidelberg University).
