How to access international HPC facilities

As a researcher at a Danish university, you can gain access to LUMI and other international supercomputers through the EuroHPC collaboration via DeiC.

You can also gain access to LUMI through the national HPC resources coordinated via DeiC, consisting of local resources, HPC sandbox resources, and national e-resources, which are allocated twice a year by call and application.

Application process international calls

The application process for international calls depends on the type of resources being applied for.

Monthly calls with quick allocation of resources

Through Benchmark Access and Development Access, you can gain access to resources for testing and development prior to applying for Extreme and/or Regular Access.
