Expression of Interest: Deucalion Benchmarking

Deucalion is a national supercomputing platform that is being installed at the University of Minho.

This new platform promises to boost data processing and analysis capabilities. Once physical assembly is complete, Deucalion will begin testing and fine-tuning to ensure full functionality and maximum performance.

In this regard, the Foundation for Science and Technology (FCT) invites potential interested parties from the national science, technology, innovation, and public administration sectors to register their availability to work alongside technical support in benchmarking tests for the Deucalion supercomputer. This opportunity is not intended for research work, but will allow selected users to contribute to the final phase of installation of Deucalion, a technological resource of extreme importance for the scientific and technological community in Portugal.

Interested parties should read the PDF file available below and complete and submit the simplified form. Work is expected to begin after September 2023.

Registration deadline is September 29, 2023 (5 p.m., Lisbon time)
