Abstract

In this paper, we describe the neuroscience gateway (NSG), which facilitates access to high performance computing resources for computational neuroscientists. Through a simple web-based portal, the NSG provides a streamlined environment for uploading models, specifying HPC job parameters, querying running job status, receiving job completion notices, and storing and retrieving output data. The NSG architecture transparently distributes user jobs to appropriate HPC resources available through the XSEDE organization.
