At the time of writing, JHPCE had 68 nodes. As with most clusters, some of the nodes are dedicated to managing user access to the cluster and some of the nodes are dedicated to transferring data. Each node has 2-4 CPUs that provide 24-128 cores! As you can see, these processors or chips have a lot more cores per each CPU than a typical personal computer.

Individual users connect and perform jobs (a.k.a. computational tasks) on the cluster using a formal [common pool resource (CPR)](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Common-pool_resource) hierarchy system. What does this mean? Recall that we are talking about shared resources, where if one user overused the resource, it may be to the detriment of other users' experiences. The CPR hierarchy system is comprised of rules and regulations designed to prevent this from happening, that are enforced by managers of the resource @common-pool_2022. This is important because if a single or a few users used up all the computing resources one day, then the other nearly 400 users would not be able to perform their work that day, which would not be fair.
