 # HPC Resources
 
-The architecture specifically tailored to data-intensive computing, Big Data
-analytics, and artificial intelligence methods with extensive capabilities for performance monitoring provides ideal conditions to achieve the ambitious research goals of the users and the ZIH.
-
-## Overview
-
-From the users' pespective, there are seperate clusters, all of them with their subdomains:
-

-| **Julia** | single SMP system |2021|julia.hpc.tu-dresden.de |
-| **Power** | IBM Power/GPU system |2018|*.power.hpc.tu-dresden.de |
-
-
-They run with their own Slurm batch system. Job submission is possible only from their login nodes.
-
-All clusters have access to these shared parallel file systems:
-
-| File system | Usable directory | Capacity | Purpose |
