The ERCAP allocation submission system is now open for 2012 NERSC allocation requests. All current projects (including startup, education, and ALCC projects) must be renewed for 2012 if you wish to continue using NERSC. New project requests may be submitted as well (for either the remainder of 2011 or for 2012).
The deadline for 2012 requests is September 23, 2011.
Award decisions for requests submitted before this deadline will be emailed to Principal Investigators and PI Proxies on December 14. Production requests made after September 23 will be reviewed in late January 2012. New startup requests awarded after June 2011 may be renewed for 2012 after the September 23 deadline.
2012 allocations will be for the period January 10, 2012, through January 7, 2013.
