The Aeronautics Research Mission Directorate (ARMD), Human Exploration and Operations Mission Directorate (HEOMD), NASA Engineering and Safety Center (NESC), Science Mission Directorate (SMD), and Space Technology Mission Directorate (STMD) are currently gathering requests for High-End Computing (HEC) time on resources at the NASA Advanced Supercomputing (NAS) facility for awards to begin October 1, 2021.

ARMD, HEOMD, NESC, SMD, and STMD managers will consider requests submitted via the HEC Request Management System (RMS) to the rolling submission calls by the July 20, 2021 deadline.

For work that is supported by NASA outside of ARMD, HEOMD, NESC, STMD, and SMD, you may renew your project(s) and apply for time under the MISC (miscellaneous) category. The MISC category does not have a share of HEC resources, and so requests will be evaluated on a case-by-case basis with no guarantee of an award of computer time.

Please submit a request:

1. If your current project award expires on September 30, 2021, and you wish to continue the project;
2. If your current project award has already expired and you wish to continue the project; or
3. If you have NASA funding for a new project that you wish to begin October 1, 2021.

Projects that are not renewed will be disabled on September 30, 2021.

Please see today's related email from NAS Operations to learn how to submit a request using RMS.

For questions on the allocation process or your specific project, please contact the Control Room at (800) 331‑8737, (650) 604‑4444, or support@nas.nasa.gov.
