EPSRC - Resource allocation panel – open access to tier 2
The Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council invites applications for its resource allocation panel – open access to tier 2 call. This provides open access to five tier 2 high performance computing facilities for adventurous highrisk, high-reward projects that will benefit from the diversity of computing architectures available at tier 2. The facilities in question are Cirrus, GW4, CSD3, HPC Midlands +, and JADE. Eligible projects include:
•short computational projects that do not warrant a full grant application;
•UK-led collaborative projects with international or industry partners;
•joint applications from students with proven HPC experience and their PIs;
•projects that link consecutive standard grant applications or that aid the preparation of a grant or fellowship application;
•extended feasibility studies and trialing application developments at scale;
•high-risk, high-reward projects that would benefit from using novel architectures.
Individuals eligible to hold a full EPSRC grant may apply. Students wishing to access HPC resources through this route must obtain commitment for support by an eligible
PI. HEIs, research council institutes and independent
research organisations are eligible.
Applications can request computing resource for a maximum duration of one year.
