Project review and approval process

Interested researchers should go to: covid19-hpc-consortium.org

• Provides a high-level overview/description of the

consortium and available resources

• Contains links for potential members who want to

join/contribute (this directs an e-mail to OSTP currently) and a link to submit a proposal Proposal link: https://www.xsede.org/covid19-hpc-consortium

Proposal process management Science and Computing Executive Committee Responsible for managing the overall proposal process, address issues, report to the Consortium Executive Board Scientific Review Sub-Committee Meeting three times a week – composed of subject matter experts from members of the Consortium – reviews for merit and recommends appropriate proposals to the Computing Matching Sub-Committee Computing Matching Sub-Committee Directs recommended proposals to the individual system contributor (e.g. ORNL, LLNL, etc.). Once matched, the researcher needs to go through the standard on- boarding/approval process to gain access to the system – working with the matching sub-committee member affiliated with the system provider.
