ICI-CNSC resources currently distribute compute time through the allocation schemes listed below, according to the master condition agreement (MCA) with Centrale Nantes (ECN).
To request a project, choose an allocation scheme and contact the relevant entity.
Preparatory Projects
They are intended only for users who are NEW to ICI-CNSC to allow them to port and test their codes before applying for one of below project schemes.
