The NIG Supercomputer
We would like to inform users that the Rhelixa Graphing Tool (RIAS Visualisation), which has been provided through our collaboration with the National Institute of Genetics, will be discontinued as the underlying system is being decommissioned. The service will end on 31 October 2025 (Friday).
As previously announced on the NIG Supercomputer website, the next-generation NIG supercomputer will begin operations on March 1, 2025.
Medium nodes have been running on CentOS 7.9, but since Cent OS 7 is no longer supported (EOL) at the end of June, they are being migrated to Ubuntu Linux 22.04 in turn.
The period for accepting end-of-year account renewal applications for FY2023 is extended.
Since the number of users of GPU nodes is increasing due to the free Parabricks, we have created only for GPU nodes in the Personal Genome Analysis division so that more researchers can use the GPU node.
A reanalysis dataset of public data from the Human Whole Genome Analysis has been published by Professor Yosuke Kawai, NCGM.
In this fiscal year (FY2022), due to the renewal of the application system in July 2022, there have been some system issues with end-of-year account renewal applications. We apologize for the inconvenience. For information on how to deal with this, refer to FAQ.
In order to avoid confusion caused by the end-of-year renewal system issues, we decided to extend the end-of-year renewal deadline as follows.
