Small Allocation request
Please use this form to request a small allocation on the NCAR Wyoming Supercomputing Center (NWSC) resources through the Wyoming-NCAR Alliance (NWA).

Please use this form to submit a request for computing services available through for eligible Wyoming researchers and their collaborators (see http://www.uwyo.edu/nwsc/allocations/).

This form can be used to request Small Allocations (supported by an externally funded award), Graduate Student/Postdoc/New Faculty Allocations (no supporting award), Data Access Allocations, and Classroom (Instructional) Allocations. These requests do not require formal panel review. Once you submit your request, you should hear from us within a few days. If you do not or if you need to correct or change any information, please contact us at wrap@uwyo.edu or 307 766-3174.

For requests associated with a funded award, the limit is 400,000 HPC core-hours (data analysis/visualization cluster use is included.) For other requests the limit is 400,000 core hours.

Small projects are established with 200,000 HPC core-hours; once the initial allocation has been consumed, one can request resources up to the allocation limit via email to wrap@uwyo.edu.

Data Access Allocations are designed to permit access to files on GLADE, not for computing access.
  • For classroom requests, please enter information for the course instructor.
