Computational Research Center
The Computational Research Center (CRC) is dedicated to helping University of North Dakota researchers solve challenging problems in science and society.
The University provides state-of-the-art computing resources and support to researchers and faculty involved in creative activities. The high-performance computer systems and the Digital Realism in Engineering and the Applied Metaverse (DREAM) Lab are available at no cost to the UND community. The CRC also pays licensing costs for software and services used by students, faculty, staff, and researchers.
The CRC is a unit of UND's Division of Research and Economic Development.
DREAM Lab
The Digital Realism in Engineering and the Applied Metaverse (DREAM) Lab has high performance computers and specialty software for creating animations, augmented reality applications, and motion-capture videos.
HPC Clusters
Our high-performance computing (HPC) clusters provide access to scalable CPU and GPU resources for data analysis, simulations, and other compute-intensive tasks that exceed what a typical desktop can handle. They enable faster turnaround times and support a wide range of research and coursework across disciplines. For those new to HPC, our team offers training and support to help users get started and use the system effectively.
Did you know...
The UND license costs supported by the CRC for the InCommon national single sign-on service. If you use sites like Globus or ORCID with your UND userid and password, you're using UND's InCommon license.
The percentage of the MATLAB software site license for UND paid for by the CRC. The UND Office of the CIO pays the other half.
New Globus Server Available
The new Globus server has been deployed! Please see the Tutorials (Getting Started > Globus) for updated instructions.
