Title of Research Project
Abstract
People Affiliated with the Project with Departmental and Institutional Affiliations
The goal of HPCF is to direct users to the most appropriate resource available at UMBC. To this end, it is important for us to understand your needs and plans. Please explain your computational needs and expected level of usage of yourself and members of your research group. We ask these questions in order to plan usage of the machine as well as possible and to inform you if this is not the right machine or its available space is not suitable for your needs. Some sample questions include: How long does your code run? How much memory does your code require? How much disk space will you need to store data and results?
Other Comments
Please use the following field for comments or special requests for your account that do not fit into any other category. For instance, if you rent Unix Research Space from OIT and would like this linked, you can request this here.
