Depending on the /wiki/spaces/PUB/pages/425995, the main proposal has to satisfy a prescribed layout:
Proposal type | Whitelist status To gain whitelist status one needs to upload the proposal and acceptance of one of the funding institutions BMBF, DFG, EU, NHR, or GCS. | Proposal layout | Included content |
|---|---|---|---|
Initial | no | layout sample |
|
yes | layout sample |

Follow-up | yes or no | layout sample |

Generally, please avoid:
- Imprecise or incomprehensible estimation of requested computational resources (especially core-hours); for example, missing arguments to justify a certain number of N runs instead of a smaller number. One page is our recommended minimum.
- No proof, that the software to be used is suitable and efficient for parallel execution (and parallel I/O) on our current HPC systems architecture. Recycling a scalability demo by a third party is meaningless, without showing that your planned production run is fully comparable to it (algorithm selection within the software, I/O pattern, machine architecture, problem size per core).
- The overall aim and/or motivation behind the project is unclear.
- The applicant lacks HPC/Unix skills and an experienced co-applicant is missing.
- Insufficiency of the applicant's local resources is not indicated.
- The NHR and/or HLRN was not mentioned in relevant publications.
- Cut & paste of previous proposals.
