Platform Application Center makes it easier for users to run HPC applications without programming, and for administrators to better manage their clusters. Available as an optional add-on module to Platform LSF, Application Center provides a flexible, application-centric web-based portal for users and administrators to interact with their HPC cluster or grid in a natural and powerful way.
