Submit a proposal
To submit a proposal for a Compute Project, please
follow Proposal Format for the main proposal documents. These documents will be uploaded in the JARDS portal and
- read Guide and assistance for the JARDS portal to submit the proposal to the JARDS portal.
Deadlines and schedule
| next deadline | next project start for granted projects |
|---|---|
| 15th of October 2024, 23:59 | 1st of January 2025 |
- This deadline is the only valid deadline for NHR@ZIB and it is an extension of the NHR wide deadline. The NHR wide deadline is only the joint deadline for all NHR centres.
- The proposals are reviewed by the Scientific Board. Meeting a deadline for submission enables the temporal course for the review process. In general submission deadlines are at the beginning of January, April, July, and October. Review results and final decisions are delivered typically two weeks prior to the project start (begin of the quarter).
Compute time for a Compute Project
A funded Compute Project has a compute time allocation measured in core hours.
- At the beginning of each quarter a project account receives compute time according to the funding decision for that project. This is the regular allocation of the project.
- The minimum for the regular allocation of a project account is 300.000 core hours per quarter.
- Unused compute time is automatically carried over to the next quarter. The size of this carry over, however, is limited to the regular allocation. Carry overs are not carried over again.
- Projects running out of compute time in between can ask for a transfer of compute time from the end of the project allocation (final quarter).
- After consumption of the entire project allocation, projects still in urgent need for more compute time may approach their consultant with an emergency application.
Guide and assistance for the JARDS portal
| Please go to the JARDS portal and start your application by choosing „NHR Normal“, if you want to apply for less than 20 Mio core-hours/year. If you plan to apply for more than 20 Mio core-hours/year, choose „NHR Large“ (if you apply only for GPU-hours, choose NHR-Large for more than 15 Mio core-hours/year, Accounting lists the value of a GPU in terms of core-hours). Please note: for "NHR Large"-projects, the "Whitelist" option is not applicable any more.
|
| Go on by |
choosing „NHR@ZIB“ | |
| On this page („E-Mail Callback“), please enter your e-mail. You will receive a mail with a link to start your application . This e-mail will be used for identification so please use your official e-mail and always the same. |
| Start the actual application by pressing „New NHR Project Application“ - even if you apply for an extension ! („extension“ will be used in the future if you extend an existing jards-application) That is, in the current phase there are only "New NHR Projekt Applikations". If your project is already running at NHR@ZIB / NHR@Göttingen, please provide your project id in the "Remarks" section at the end and also refer to it in the pdf. YOU MIGHT USE THE SIMPLIFIED TEMPLATE FOR A FOLLOW-UP PROPOSAL - IN THAT CASE PLEASE ADDITIONALLY UPLOAD THE ORIGINAL APPLICATION AS SUPPORTING MATERIAL. |
| If you are Principal Investigator and Person of contact (PC and PI), you can check „Apply as both, PI and PC“, otherwise please provide the data of both persons. |
| Complete the data. |
| Do NOT enter a Project ID (it will be set automatically). „compute period“ is (usually): 01.10 – 30.09 |
(1 year). You might apply for a shorter period (in full quarters). | |
| Select your DFG classification. And answer if your project is a collaboration. |
| Please provide all other relevant projects of your GROUP (that is, projects with the same PI and in the same area). |
| Please enter the requested computing time in Million Core hours (CPU). Total first, then divided in quarters. Some questions about software etc. follow. |
| Please answer questions about your usage of Artificial Intelligence (AI) - if you do not use AI, you do not need to answer these questions. |
| If you want to apply for GPU computing time, please enter the values in GPU-hours, that is hours of a single gpu (not a full node). |
<hier bsp. > ? (realistisch)
| Also for GPU usage, some questions about the environment have to be answered. |
| |
| Please enter your planned storage requests on the file systems Home, Work and Perm (this does NOT mean that this storage will be reserved for you). Bigger storage requests should be described even more precise. |
| These questions should be answered if you have "unusual" I/O requests. |
| You can upload only 3 PDF Files. 1.) the "actual application", created with the given template. 2.) a public abstract (for our web server) - easy to understand. 3.) All other documents , e.g. other reviews, publications etc., have to be combined in a single PDF. You might use free tools like PDF-Shuffler to do so. Then, please upload the combined PDF as „Supporting material“ . |
| Please provide your NHR@ZIB / NHR@Göttingen |
project id here if you have one, e.g. "bem00027". You might submit any other remarks here. | |
| Finally, you have to sign your application. After pressing „Finalize“, a summary to sign will be created for you. You might upload it on jards or send it by e-mail to Of course, you might also send it to : Wissenschaftlicher Ausschuss der NHR@ZIB und NHR@Göttingen - Geschäftsstelle - |
