Resumen:
High Performance Computing centers boost the developmentof a wide range of disciplines in Science and Engineering. The installationof public shared facilities in a country is an effort that should be carefullyused and must be as open as possible to strengthen the impact of theseresources.We describe the current status and characteristics of TUPAC supercom-puter, which is hosted by a CONICET research institute. Unlike otherexperiences in Argentina, TUPAC is focused on supporting external sci-entific and technological communities. In spite of having a reduced oper-ations staff, this machine provides computational resources and supportsmore than 200 external research projects.In this work we describe the supercomputer setup, tools and policies im-plemented to reach the level of efficiency needed to support this amountof projects. We also characterize jobs, users and projects with specialemphasis on industrial applications and large computational researchinitiatives hosted in TUPAC.
