PROJECT ALLOCATIONS

PROJECT ALLOCATIONS

DiRAC serves more than 35 projects with over 400 active users. Our community is diverse and encompasses Particle Physics, Astrophysics, cosmology, solar system science and Nuclear Physics. Together their research addresses all the STFC Science Challenges.
 

After each Call has been concluded, the compute time allocated to each project is published, in terms of GPU- and CPU-Mhours on the DiRAC Resource on which the calculations are to be run, as well as the Storage Space [TB] allocated. In DiRAC we have three compute services based at four sites and due to the different architectures on each Service, the GPU- and CPU-Mhours awarded to projects using different services may not be directly comparable.
