U-M Research Computing Package

The University of Michigan Research Computing Package (UMRCP) is an investment into the U-M research community via simple, dependable access to several ITS-provided high-performance computing clusters and data storage resources. CPU credits are allocated on the Armis2 protected data cluster and can be used for standard, larger memory, or GPU resources.
