[RITL] TACC Frontera and Longhorn GPU Allocations are open for proposal

Wed Nov 4 16:44:37 PST 2020

Dear RITL,

I wanted to forward this to the group in case you happened to be working with a researcher that needs A LOT of GPU resources right now.
Frontera is the 8th most powerful supercomputer in the world, and the fastest supercomputer on a university campus.
Tight deadline through.

Regards,
Chuck Forsyth

Subject: Frontera Pathways and LSCP Allocations now open for proposals!

Dear Charles,

We are pleased to announce the opening of the fourth Frontera Pathways and Frontera Large Scale Community Partnership (LSCP) allocation tracks. Resources available for request include Frontera and its GPU subsystem<https://u3820397.ct.sendgrid.net/ls/click?upn=bn9aLabmSKMqbNAfIu6JDsiIS54nqWk1GnLDARe-2FcoXM0o-2FAxwpQp5-2FCJkzRvxOQaYR9l-2FNiJZyS6C7UpHEIiA-3D-3DzrNs_-2BgmifztyPi01PXTA-2BjaWbzaYzQkAPYFg8nbuLAP-2BlPSjnKY9wrvPtkp-2BX-2B10NHio4XNUR2EV43NrXRvy1vfJ7-2BMXpau8b0JRCRQVbrEOvP0bFBmdECpbsR6Y-2BQ76hWKDOYEW6EEmgUnU-2BF4agxSLZRYXfJa1vk0CriHhanOtsuj7opwPfBRl1ALns8yFSmvzhfax-2Fq2qljFwEjDf-2FR0VGxfKuifG5cKBl2LDOEVb4pUgM1-2FPQj4a8ZPIifMT2wHg2GEtPsbxaS-2BIDWQdDUC7PYS9HpxsUt2WVs-2BOVD16Rwn9pf9JuPncxStOv2OIlTXLRUJc4V90FNY720s5-2BpwLdmc2-2FB77RwCwYun-2Bx9qPrpMuKUvEINbVOtW1qCKHlyS99DJTAptGSQzYR9nO6KAlycI9B2QmZWMycP4nrr9ALD3n7LoMjhUTeUrh-2BxnlSjiD>, as well as the Longhorn GPU resource<https://u3820397.ct.sendgrid.net/ls/click?upn=bn9aLabmSKMqbNAfIu6JDt6jPwoT9xTWZiPFkDMrtv6hiVDZyGmvrjrANvtSXRyL8sZlKyOcISUEIst9HDqViw-3D-3DqF9b_-2BgmifztyPi01PXTA-2BjaWbzaYzQkAPYFg8nbuLAP-2BlPSjnKY9wrvPtkp-2BX-2B10NHio4XNUR2EV43NrXRvy1vfJ7-2BMXpau8b0JRCRQVbrEOvP0bFBmdECpbsR6Y-2BQ76hWKDOYEW6EEmgUnU-2BF4agxSLZRYXfJa1vk0CriHhanOtsuj7opwPfBRl1ALns8yFSmvzhfax-2Fq2qljFwEjDf-2FR0VGxfKuifG5cKBl2LDOEVb4pUgM1-2FPQj4a8ZPIifMT2wHgS8iY1zMS0Jpy8MvQb0tjVZI-2B0dqSUfTejZaBjcFbp8wGaVZenqT-2FhP9MD8UA8FTM54sDle4XM-2B4XzR5eiAIK3XFk2V63HCXpKXlHh413CxYUKR4-2BU-2F4hxR9JBaMiaa001B3vPA7qGFSuMuz181fNTc-2BBO092cFLN-2Bp03F11WIklQt4u3mBW4j-2BlSAInmSBQn>. We will be accepting proposals for these two allocation tracks through November 15, 2020.

Pathways
These are small allocations (between 10,000-250,000 SUs per year) to science teams with a strong scientific justification for access to a leadership-class computing resource, but who have not yet demonstrated code readiness to effectively utilize such a resource.

LSCP
These are allocations (between 25,000-1,000,000 SUs per year, up to 3 years) where we can't strictly characterize the set of experiments to run within a 12-month allocation period, but that line up with a large team or community, a large instrument, or other large NSF investment.

Detailed descriptions of all four Frontera allocation tracks can be found on the Frontera Allocations<https://u3820397.ct.sendgrid.net/ls/click?upn=bn9aLabmSKMqbNAfIu6JDsiIS54nqWk1GnLDARe-2FcoXBJ-2B2ri2p1j0AC1yeGXFTcmXX6brZQksze3aDAH31vTA-3D-3DZHVf_-2BgmifztyPi01PXTA-2BjaWbzaYzQkAPYFg8nbuLAP-2BlPSjnKY9wrvPtkp-2BX-2B10NHio4XNUR2EV43NrXRvy1vfJ7-2BMXpau8b0JRCRQVbrEOvP0bFBmdECpbsR6Y-2BQ76hWKDOYEW6EEmgUnU-2BF4agxSLZRYXfJa1vk0CriHhanOtsuj7opwPfBRl1ALns8yFSmvzhfax-2Fq2qljFwEjDf-2FR0VGxfKuifG5cKBl2LDOEVb4pUgM1-2FPQj4a8ZPIifMT2wHgcrhf4TJJpZlWHsD7gYzh-2FxjIM4uSfvYIoPsEbmSMuE9QIabpfKD5qGSnwkAFB05r0ik9unv068dGo4qHwuDZ4WDNuU8-2FfuyCKtFFXmebQHh7JRA8eJDlD93EQHVrs3vLNeXBHLQycKgtinjWKI9tF2FH63t3uXcPvDKY-2FYljEs0tkXhLzL01I3IoFhLcxpsp> web page.

After reading the allocations policy and guidelines, you may determine that a startup allocation would be beneficial to do code performance and benchmarking to be incorporated into your Pathways or LSCP proposal. Instructions for obtaining a Startup allocation are included on the policy & guidelines web page.

Please submit any questions you may have through the TACC Consulting System or feedback form.
