 ====== High performance computing facilities at RHUL ======
-The RHUL Psychology department has two facilities for high performance computing (HPC), suitable for processing neuroimaging data:
+Note these facilities are managed by the Psychology department and are available to RHUL users only.
-  - A traditional, but currently somewhat ancient, computing cluster with capacity to run 20 parallel threads.
-  - A new (as of 2022) high-performance Linux workstation with 16 cores.
-Longer term, the old cluster will be decommissioned and replaced by additional high-performance workstations to provide more flexible computing solutions for users. Details about the cluster and HPC facilities can be found on the  [[https://moodle.royalholloway.ac.uk/course/view.php?id=4099&sectionid=60863|staff intranet]] (RHUL users only).
+The RHUL Psychology department has two facilities for high performance computing (HPC), suitable for processing neuroimaging data:
+   - A high-performance Linux workstation (psycomp) with 16 cores. Note that this may be decommissioned in the medium term as the new cluster goes online. Please check with Steve Hammett for details.
+   - A high-performance virtualised computing cluster (psyc01) with 256 CPU cores and a task scheduler for load management (SLURM). More details about using the cluster can be found {{ :psychp01_user_guide.pdf |here}}.
