Note

The latest changes and newly installed software on our clusters can be found at the HPC Changelog microsite.

This is the documentation for Bessemer, one of the University of Sheffield’s High Performance Computing clusters. Bessemer is a ‘capacity’ cluster designed to run compute jobs which will fit on a single node. Bessemer can support jobs requiring up to 40 cores per job - for larger jobs please use Stanage or ShARC.
