Researchers with big-data needs are invited to request access to the Atmospheric Radiation Measurement (ARM) user facility’s high-performance computing resources. Requests should be submitted by Friday, March 17, 2023, to be considered in the next review, which is planned for April.
Requests to use ARM’s high-performance computing resources should focus on activities that:
- involve large volumes of ARM data, which would be prohibitive to download to other computer systems
- require parallel processing using computationally intensive code applied to ARM data sets
- analyze voluminous outputs from the Large-Eddy Simulation (LES) ARM Symbiotic Simulation and Observation (LASSO) activity
To submit a high-performance computing proposal, principal investigators (PIs) must submit a request form. Review of the proposal and response to PIs will be communicated shortly after the April meeting and may include requests for clarifying information and/or information regarding the review timeline.
Once approved, the ARM Data Center High-Performance Computing team will communicate with PIs to enable access to the Cumulus high-performance computing cluster and provide any technical support needed.
Please note: Active ARM user accounts are required for all PIs and co-PIs requesting access to ARM’s high-performance computing resources. Requests to use these resources cannot be completed until accounts have been created. PIs and co-PIs can set up accounts through this page.
Once all accounts are created, submit your team’s access request.
