# PSI HPC@CSCS
PSI has a long standing collaboration with CSCS for offering high end
HPC resources to PSI projects. PSI had co-invested in CSCS' initial
Cray XT3 supercomputer *Horizon* in 2005 and we continue to procure a share on the
CSCS flagship systems.
The share is intended for projects that by their nature cannot profit
from applying for regular [CSCS user lab allocation
schemes.](https://www.cscs.ch/user-lab/allocation-schemes).
We can also help PSI groups to procure additional resources based on
the PSI conditions - please contact us in such a case.
## Yearly survey for requesting a project on the PSI share
At the end of each year we prepare a survey process and notify all subscribed
users of the specialized **PSI HPC@CSCS mailing list** (see below) and the
merlin cluster lists, to enter their next year resource requests. Projects
receive resources in the form of allocations over the four quarters of the
following year.
The projects requests get reviewed and requests may get adapted to fit into the
available capacity.
The survey is done through ServiceNow, please navigate to
[Home > Service Catalog > Research Computing > Apply for computing resources at CSCS](https://psi.service-now.com/psisp?id=psi_new_sc_cat_item&sys_id=8d14bd1e4f9c7b407f7660fe0310c7e9)
and submit the form.
Applications will be reviewed and the final resource allocations, in case of
oversubscription, will be arbitrated by a panel within CSD.
### Instructions for filling out the 2026 survey
* We have a budget of 100 kCHF for 2026, which translates to 435'000 multicore node hours or 35'600 node hours on the GPU Grace Hopper nodes.
* multicore projects: The minimum allocation is 10'000 node hours, an average project allocation amounts to 30'000 node hours
* GPU projects: The minimum allocation is 800 node hours, an average project allocation is 2000 node hours.
* You need to specify the total resource request for your project in node hours, and how you would like to split the resources over the 4 quarters. For the allocations per quarter year, please enter the number in percent (e.g. 25%, 25%, 25%, 25%). If you indicate nothing, a 25% per quarter will be assumed.
* We currently have a total of 65 TB of storage for all projects. Additional storage
can be obtained, but large storage assignments are not in scope for these projects.
## CSCS Systems reference information
For 2025 we can offer access to [CSCS Alps](https://www.cscs.ch/computers/alps) Eiger (CPU multicore) and Daint (GPU) systems.
