First PRACE Petaflop/s System Ready for European Researchers: Early Access Call Open

PRACE (the Partnership for Advanced Computing in Europe) allows researchers from across Europe to apply for time on the PRACE resources via a peer review process. This call marks the first opportunity for researchers to apply for PRACE resources.

It is an early access call inviting applications for the first HPC system available to researchers through PRACE: the IBM BlueGene/P – JUGENE – hosted by the Gauss-Centre member site in Jülich, Germany.

JUGENE offers computation power of one Petaflop/s and is one of the fastest computers in the world (number 4 on the latest Top 500 list of world’s most powerful computers). The term Petaflop/s means computation efficiency of 1015 floating point operations per second.

The deadline for submission of proposals is June 10th at 16.00 CEST. All proposals must be submitted via the PRACE website at http://www.prace-project.eu/hpc-access
