Learn More about Lighthouse
UW has received a discretionary allocation of computational resources through ALCF to support University of Wyoming researchers who would like to try out Argonne National Lab's world-class computing resources for their work.
Should you consider an account?
The University of Wyoming Lighthouse allocation is intended to serve as an on-ramp for researchers at UW who would like to test and experiment using Argonne National Lab computing resources. Utilization of resources through Lighthouse would also help prepare researchers for their own major allocation awards through Dept. of Energy's INCITE and ALCC award programs.
ALCF Resources are ideal for ARCC users who need to scale GPU resources beyond what is often available on the ARCC's Medicinebow cluster, or those who need access to specialty AI accelerators available through their ALCF's AI Testbed.
Are you interested in trying it out?
Interested parties should first request to be added to the UW Lighthouse allocation as indicated below. Instructions are dependent upon the requestors account status:
|
If you do not have an ALCF account |
If you have an expired ALCF account |
If you have an active ALCF Account |

What's available to UW ALCF Users?
Lighthouse-UWyoming project members are granted access to the associated allocation through which they can access Argonne computational resources. This includes available allocated compute time and allocated storage space.
The Lighthouse-UWyoming allocation currently consists of 100TB , and 5000 node hours available for use on ALCF Production machines including AI Testbeds. Resources can be replenished upon request as they are utilized by members of our lighthouse allocation.
