Application Types
You can apply for two different types of projects, to a Test Project and to a Compute Project with the following properties.
| Application | Compute Time Grant | Compute time per quarter [coreh] | Review process | Call | link to application |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Test Project | User account and enough compute time for smaller projects and/or preparation | 75k (up to 300k upon request) | Automatically granted upon user account creation | rolling | user account |
| Compute Project | Normal | 300k - 5M | Scientific board of NHR@ZIB, NHR@Göttingen | quarterly | |
Whitelist: simplified review by Scientific board DFG/BMBF/NHR/GCS/EU grant required | |||||
| Large-scale ("Großprojekt") | >=5 Mcoreh (CPUs) >=6.25 kGPUh (GPU) | Scientific board + NHR panel ("Nutzungsausschuss") |
Application Process
Project proposals for a Compute Project have to be submitted via the portal JARDS.
- Our Guide to filling out offers assistance to go through JARDS.
- One significant point on JARDS is to upload the main proposal document. To prepare this main proposal document we suggest to use the following Proposal Format.
Deadlines and schedule
Compute Project proposals can be submitted via JARDS at all times. In the quarter beginning with the submission deadline (cf. below) the review process takes place . The project starts with the quarter following the review phase and is granted for a lifetime of 12 months.
Submission deadlines are 15th of January, April, July, and October.
The next deadline is 15th of January 2024, 23:59. In case of a positive review, compute resources are granted starting first of april 2024.
The proposals for both sites are reviewed by the Scientific Board. Review results and final decisions are delivered typically two weeks prior to the project start (begin of the quarter).
