Janus Proposals

Overview

Before writing proposal, visit Application Guidelines and Allocation Cycles to review procedure guidelines. All new users are advised to apply for a testing allocation of 50,000 cpu hours (SU's) before submitting a proposal for a medium or large allocation. Testing allocations are granted almost immediately and require very little work.

Writing the Proposal

It is suggested that new users look to previously submitted proposals as a template. Previous proposals can be found here:

 /projects/janus_proposals/Proposals/

Only section 1, 2, 6, and 7 need to be changed to fit the user's proposal. Estimation of cpu hours and data storage needed should be based off of previous experience found using the testing allocation. Section 5 should be updated if possible by checking to see if new papers citing Janus have been written. Check the following directory before submitting proposal:

 /projects/janus_proposals/Papers/
