CC* Regional Computing: Great Plains Extended Network of GPUs for Interactive Experimenters
(GP-ENGINE)
The GP-ENGINE project advances the adoption of advanced computing and data resources in the Great Plains Network region. This project will increase the number of researchers and students served by both local and national computing resources, strengthen the capacity and capabilities of campus research computing professionals, and expand the regional capacity for research. Researchers will be able to transition nascent ideas and codes into advanced computing code using locally provisioned advanced computing resources. These codes can be later executed on national high-throughput computing resources. These successes will enhance institutional buy-in for sustainable regional and national research computing systems.

CC* Great Plains CyberTEAM
The Great Plains CyberTeam is a distributed mentor-mentee workforce development program that works with institutions within the region that have growing Cyberinfrastructure needs; participants work together to determine the institution’s research computing needs and work through the process from identification to implementation, developing best practices along the way, to enhance campus capabilities that enable research.
CC* Great PLAINS ARGO
GP-ARGO: The Great Plains Augmented Regional Gateway to the Open Science Grid
The goals of GP-ARGO are expanding GPN CyberTeam’s model by training researcher-facing staff and deploying 15-20 HTC compute nodes across the region. These nodes function as both gateways to local HPC resources and OSG.
