Description

This access call is intended: 

  • For Industry users
  • For More than 50,000 GPU hours
  • To provide Approval within 10 working days

Large Scale Access call is intended for applications performing AI activities with high-impact, high-gain innovative research, justifying the need for and the capacity to use large allocations in terms of compute time, data storage and support services. The allocations are granted for a period of three, six, or twelve months, depending on the duration needs. 

Access is granted within 10 working days from cut-off date provided that the proposal successfully passes the technical and peer-review evaluation organised by the EuroHPC JU Peer-review office.

The Large Access call is continuously open with predefined cut-off dates (two per month). 

Academia and public sector users should target the AI for Science and Collaborative EU projects access mode.

The supercomputer systems and their services provided for the Fast Lane Access call by EuroHPC Hosting Entities are:

EuroHPC systems available for Large Scale Access

(*The above EuroHPC systems are sorted in order to show the last available system that entered production. **Maximum resources available per month. ***Maximum and minimum resources available per proposal, overall.) All resources in the table are displayed in GPU hours.

Please note that the availability of certain partitions may be limited at the time of your application due to high demand. If the targeted partition is unavailable on the online form, we recommend selecting from those that are accessible.

Explanation: Proposals with very large needs in terms of GPU time should consider the maximum resources available per month for the targeted partition when submitting their proposal. Example: If an application requests the maximum resources available per proposal of a EuroHPC system (for example, MN5 ACC = 4 066 000 GPU hours), its duration must be divided by the maximum GPU time available per month (for example, MN5 ACC = 336 000 GPU hours). In this specific case, the minimum duration of the project would be 12 months (Request / Maximum GPU available per month = Minimum duration of the project).
