Scientist Dereje Agonafer’s lab at the University of Texas receives high-tech equipment from Yahoo

Yahoo Labs’ Academic Partnerships team and the Yahoo Data Center Operations group has delivered 480 servers to the University of Texas at Arlington (UTA). Combined with the 250 servers Yahoo donated to UTA in late 2012, the gift amounts to the most servers Yahoo has donated to any individual institution in our YSTAR (Yahoo Servers to Academic Researchers) program since its inception in 2010. The capabilities provided by the large clusters comprising these refurbished machines have enabled UTA faculty and grad students to perform more robust research with more computing power than ever before.
