Note: As of November 8, 2010, frame 0 (14 Power5 nodes) was removed and not part of Pelican anymore.
Pelican is a 16 node IBM pSeries (Power 5+) cluster running the AIX operating system. 16 IBM Power5+ 575 nodes are coupled with high perormance switch interconnects suitable for parallel computing while others are isolated machines suitable for interactive use or the execution of sequential programs. Pelican has been designed to allow machines to change roles as user demands change and as more computational resources become available.
