How to Request Computing Time
This guide will walk you through the entire process from selecting an active call to tracking the status of your submitted application.
Step 1: List of Open Calls
After logging into the HPC PERUN Portal, open the Calls section from the left-hand menu.
Under the Active tab, you will see all currently open calls in which you can submit an application.
The list displays:
- Call name
- Type
- Description
- Application due date
- Current status (Active / Closed)
- “View Call” button
Click View Call to open the detailed information.
Step 2: Call Details – Basic Information
When you open the call, a complete description of the call is displayed, for example:
- Eligibility – who can apply
- Project scope – allowed and supported thematic areas
- Technical requirements – compatibility and required specifications
- Conditions for using the computing resources
Check whether your project complies with the call requirements.
Then click the “Applications” tab to apply.
Step 3: Submitting a Project Application
In the Applications tab, you will see:
- your own submitted applications for the given call (if any)
- the "Apply” button
By clicking the Apply button, the application form will open.
Fill in the required fields (some are mandatory), such as:
- Project title
- Project description (abstract) – scientific/technical overview, objectives, expected contribution
- Requested CPU hours
- Requested GPU hours
- ...
- Software tools – e.g., Matlab, Python, TensorFlow…
Project attachments (with a maximum allowed file size)
You can upload, for example:
- Images
- DOCX documents
- XLSX files
Project team members
Add collaborators who are already registered in the system. Start typing their name/email and the system will suggest matching users.
...
Before submitting, you must:
- check the “I agree to the terms and conditions” box
- review all entered information
- click “Submit Application”
After submitting, a confirmation screen “Application Submitted” will appear.
Application deletion
An unsubmitted request can be deleted, but it cannot be restored.
Step 4: Tracking the Status and Processing of Your Application
Each application is reviewed and evaluated by the committee of the TUKE Supercomputing Center.
Once your application has been processed, you will receive an informational email with the decision.
