ARCC Technical Documentation Index

The Advanced Research Computing Center is the primary research computing center at the University of Wyoming.  This wiki  is intended to provide user-focused, detailed technical documentation and instructions for how to utilize research computing resources available to the University of Wyoming research community.  The General ARCC Service Documentation Section on the left contains documentation with overviews on all of our resources, and how to use them.   The ARCC Cluster Documentation section on the right contains documentation and how-tos associated with ARCC cluster(s) i.e., Medicinebow.  Please contact arcc-help@uwyo.edu if you notice any of our Wiki documentation is outdated, incorrect or you’re unable to find what you need.
