Registration/bwForCluster/RV

Step B: Apply for a Rechenvorhaben/Project

Typically an Rechenvorhaben/project (RV) is registered by the leader or a senior scientist of a research group/collaboration. Any amount of co-workers can then join your RV to do work using the cluster.

Register a new RV

In a RV, you will be asked to shortly describe your group's compute activities and the resources you need.

If you register your own RV, you will be:

1. held accountable for the co-workers in the RV
2. asked to provide information for the two reports required by the DFG for their funding of bwFor clusters
3. likely asked for a contribution to a future DFG grant proposal for a new bwForcluster in your area of research ("wissenschaftliches Beiblatt")

Please follow the steps at Register a new RV
