iris lab

 

he IRIS Lab Computing Power includes: (1) four DELL Precision 7920 Tower workstations, each with dual Intel Xeon Gold CPUs, dual NVIDIA Quadro P8000 GPUs, 128GB RAM, 16TB HD; (2) Four HP Z820 workstations, each with dual CPU processors and 32 cores, dual GPUs, 128GB RAM and 12TB HDs. (3) Four HP xw860 workstations, each with dual processors and 16 cores, 64GB RAM and 6TB HDs. (4) Two DELL Precision T3600 workstations, each with dual processors and 16 cores, 64GB RAM and 6TB HDs. (5) Four DELL Precision T5500 workstations, each with dual processors and 16 cores, 32GB RAM and 4TB HDs. (6) All these workstations are served by a powerful server of DELL PowerEdge T610 with dual processors and 16 cores, 32GB Ram and 4TB HDs. (7) A HP cluster (eight nodes of Pentium IV, 3.0GB RAM, 750GB Disk). (8) Others include several color and B/W laser printers and scanners. This computing facility is linked to the imaging scanners in the University Hospital (UH) via fiber-optical network. The computer power is sufficient and adequate to the proposed algorithm development and evaluation.

There are three anthropomorphic phantoms (in the IRIS Lab) available to this project. One is the RSD torso phantom (RSD. Inc., CA), another is the RSD striatal head phantom, and the third one is the Hoffman brain phantom (Data Spectrum, Inc., NC). The IRIS Lab has a wet lab for phantom and other research preparations.
