Computers

General Overview
MESA and NuGrid MPPNP need strong computer power, while NuGrid PPN needs pretty small power.

Available Computers
- Sony VAIO laptop (Ubuntu 18.04.3; 64 bit, cpu: 2 GHz * 4; memory 8 GB) --> Basically NuGrid (sometimes MESA for small load calculation). MPPNP couldn't be successfully installed. It looks like hdf5 is not installed well (maybe different versions 1.8. and 1.10 are mixed...??). So this is only used for PPN.

- GCA server (Ubuntu 16.04.6; 64 bit, cpu: 3.6 GHz * 8; memory 16 GB) --> MESA and MPPNP (and PPN).

- Macbook Air (Sierra; 64 bit, cpu: 1.4 GHz (intel) * 1; memory 4 GB) --> NuGrid only (just for quick test). Naturally only PPN.

- WENDI (Ubuntu 18.04; 64 bit, cpu: 2.4 GHz * 16; memory 120 GB) --> If necessary for very heavy calculations, possible to use this by asking Fork (I got access from him now). https://astrohub.uvic.ca. Now I'm using this mostly for MESA (since HD size is only 300 GB and not good to run MPPNP by uploading hdf5 input data).

Computation History
- MPPNP run_test (run_template); M25 Z0.02 from cycle 1 to last 23,000. @ Sony Linux, took 24 hrs. 9/21/2019.

- MPPNP run; M5 Z0.02 from cycle 1 to last 125,000. @ GCA, took 4 days. 10/10-15/2019. (many times calculations down, so needed to restart).
