New project categories for Medium and Large projects

As you might know, TU Darmstadt is one of the national HPC centers (NHR) since the beginning of this year [1]. RWTH Aachen University and the TU Darmstadt are together forming NHR4CES [2] to cooperate in the context of NHR [3]. This advances HPC nationwide and secures funding for the next decade. However, this also means, that there will be changes in the way that compute resources are granted and applied for. Regarding Tier 2 project categories („Medium“ and „Large“), we do not differentiate between members from TU Darmstadt and other members of German public or government-approved teaching and research institutions anymore. This means that the project categories “Medium” and “Large” will not be available for new applications anymore. Currently running projects will continue as scheduled. “Small” Projects can be applied for as before. go
