Online application tool

In order to apply for resources on the HPC or storage facilites, including TSD, it is necessary to send an application through Metacenter Administration System (MAS).

Who can apply?

Individuals and groups from the following Norwegian organizations can apply for access to the resources in the national e-infrastructure:

• Norwegian universities and university colleges
• Governmental Research Centers
• Entities or projects financed by the Ministry of Education and Research or the Research Council of Norway
• Industrial parties who contribute to the funding of the e-infrastructure

The resources in the national e-infrastructure are available for research and education, but written agreements may be established with Sigma2 for other usage of the resources. Organizations that do not fall in the above categories, but that would like to have access, should contact Sigma2.

Project leadership criterias

The applicant must either hold a permanent position, be a postdoctoral fellow or be a temporary employed researcher at his/her organization. Master students, PhD students and guest researchers cannot apply directly, but must do this via a colleague (e.g., supervisor) that holds a permanent position or is a postdoctoral fellow at the organization

The qualified user has to be project leader for the project, but it is possible for other researchers to be assigned as assistant project leaders, so called executive officers (XO).

Already a user?

Users with already existing national e-infrastructure projects may renew their projects or apply for extra resources through the Metacenter Administration System (MAS).
