Infrastructure/home

The NLPL infrastructure for collaboration and software and data management includes, among other things,

• resource allocations on two superclusters and procedures to gain access;
• an ever-growing collection of mostly parallel software and data modules;
• a project-operated MediaWiki instance with public and internal documentation;
• a collection of project-maintained mailing lists for various project sub-groups.
