Project Description The full name of the GP-ARGO project is CC* Compute: GP-ARGO: The Great Plains Augmented Regional Gateway to the Open Science Grid.

GP-ARGO is the first expansion pack to the GPN CyberTeam project. Its goal is to create many OSG submit nodes around the Great Plains Region. This project was inspired by the general lack of High Throughput Computing (HTC) resources at regional scale. This led to a lack of interest and buy-in by students and staff and few qualified researcher-facing staff.

The goals of GP-ARGO are expanding GPN CyberTeam’s model by training researcher-facing staff and deploying 15-20 HTC compute nodes across the region. These nodes function as both gateways to local HPC resources and OSG.

Some of the broader impacts are increased students and staff participation in HTC computing and more resources for bioinformatics and pandemic science. Finally GP-ARGO will serve as a model for other distributed regional HTC efforts.
