*** Proposals Still Being Accepted***

The ASCR Leadership Computing Challenge (ALCC) allocates up to 30 percent of the computational resources at the DOE Leadership Computing Facilities. Accepted projects are directly related to the DOE's energy mission, national emergency, or for broadening the community of researchers capable of using leadership computing resources. Awards are based on a peer review for scientific merit and computational readiness. Though the initial submission deadline has passed, interested individuals are encouraged to submit their proposals for consideration. For information, visit: http://science.energy.gov/ascr/facilities/alcc/.

*** User Tip: Pre-installed Applications and Libraries ***
