Access to the production phase of the MareNostrum supercomputer5

FCT would like to remind you that until September 9, 2024, the national Science, Technology, Innovation and Public Administration sectors can submit expressions of interest to access the production phase of the MareNostrum5 (MN5) Supercomputer. Interested parties should complete and submit the simplified form, available at Expression of interest form.

Applications are evaluated every two weeks by FCCN's advanced computing services, FCT's digital services. Selection will be based on three criteria: (1) order of arrival of requests, (2) previous experience of candidates and (3) immediate availability to use the resources.

The Deucalion and Barcelona Supercomputing Center (BSC) technical support team will evaluate and validate the requirements. Each candidate can only have one access request approved and the process closes when the resources available through the Advanced Computing Project Calls to run on MN5 are exhausted.

The BSC has announced that its latest supercomputer, the MareNostrum5 (MN5), in which Portugal holds a 5% stake, has entered the production phase as part of the RE-C05-i08 - Ciência Mais Digital investment, funded by the Recovery and Resilience Plan (PRR).
