MARVEL D5.8: HPC infrastructure and resource management for audio-visual data analytics – final version

This deliverable presents the High Performance Computing (HPC) infrastructure utilised by the MARVEL project to deploy the audio-visual data analytics framework. This document presents a comprehensive overview of the resources delivered by the Poznan Supercomputing and Networking Center (PSNC) to the consortium for the processing and storing of data. Computing resources for running applications come from domains like HPC and cloud, where virtual machines with framework services are set up according to pilot demands. The document also discusses the MARVEL Data Corpus, which aims to provide substantial volumes of anonymised and annotated audio-visual datasets for scientific and industrial communities. Moreover, the report addresses organisational and operational aspects, explaining the procedures for accessing and managing resources as well as obtaining technical support.
