The Tier-2 "Cambridge Service for Data Driven Discovery" (CSD3) national service will start with the first Tier-2 Open Call. Check the EPSRC website for more information about the Open Calls, based on what I know it is going to be 12nd October and the technical assessment due on 21st September (a process very much like ARCHER applications).
At the current stage there are two clusters available for access:
- a GPU-accelerated cluster made of 360 P100 called "Wilkes -2" (~1.2 PFlop/s)
- a many-core cluster made of 340 Intel Xeon Phi called "Peta4-KNL" (~0.5 TFlop/s)
During this Pump-priming / Proof-of-concept access (which will always be open) we accept requests for access the systems to help people to prepare their applications. It is very important to point out that the Pump-priming / Proof-of-concept access is not for running science. For this reason, the allowance will be limited (~20k GPU hours and ~20k KNL hours). Expansions of this allowance are compl
