With the loss of a postgrad admin (Karl Podesta), and the arrival at the School of Computing of a commercial cluster brought through a tender process for the National Institute of Cellular Biotechnology (16 dual-CPU nodes Dell Poweredge running Red Hat Linux), the old Redbrick cluster has been since decommissioned after providing a platform for 2 years of research within the "ModSci" research group. The new commercial cluster is now only available for use via special request by students & staff of NICB, or of the Masters in Bioinformatics, and not open to all students. A new commodity cluster specifically for the School of Computing has been set up by Neil Costigan working in cryptography on elliptic curves.
