GCS Large-Scale Projects are characterised by projects that require a large amount of computing time, meaning a minimum of 2 percent of a system’s annual production in terms of estimated availability, over a period of 12 months. Researchers at German universities and publicly funded German research institutions are eligible to apply.
Interested researchers can apply to gain access to GCS’ leading HPC systems:
For further details on how to apply for computing time or to learn more about the technical details of the three GCS HPC systems, please visit our website HPC Access.
All GCS HPC systems are jointly funded by the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research, with 50 percent contributed by the federal states of Baden-Württemberg, Bavaria, and North Rhine-Westphalia respectively.
About GCS Large-Scale Projects: All large-scale projects go through a competitive review and resource allocation process established by the GCS. A "Call for Large-Scale Projects" is published by the Gauss Centre twice a year. Deadlines for calls are usually at the end of winter and at the end of summer of each year. An overview of the approved GCS Large-Scale Projects is available at gauss-centre.eu/results/large-scale-projects/.
