Can my department run calculations on LCA Collaboration Server?

Question

My department and I would like to have a server on which we can run calculations on OpenLCA due to our work laptops not being the fastest around. We have a server running at our department and I was hoping the LCA Collaboration Server could run the calculations, for different users at a time. Is this possible or is the LCA Collaboration Server only used to share databases?

Answer 1

The Collaboration Server does not do calculations. We have created an LCA platform system and are currently co-developing this with several larger enterprise clients, this platform indeed does calculations.

Also, in version 2 of openLCA, calculation will be much faster and need much less resources, with libraries. We plan to release it this summer.
