HPC Materials Chemistry Consortium


Notice Board (last updated: 19th January 2011)

Materials Chemistry Conference: from Wednesday lunch 28th March - Friday lunch 30th March 2012.
We hope all project leaders will attend with as many of their team as possible to show case the wide variety of good HPC research - there will be a session for each theme. Deadline for abstracts and attendance form 14th February.

A big thank you to all members who submitted a manuscript to the special issue of Roy Soc Proc A.

Next meeting: 10:30am-12:30pm Wednesday 28th March 2012 UCL, Roberts Buidling, Lecture Theatre 106

Deadline for HPC time on HECToR for next period: Saturday 10th March 2012

Applications for HECToR time for the next period from each group should be sent to me as attachments of ONE email that also lists (a) group members (both first and surnames please) that will attend the meeting; (b) HPC publications and presentations (using the same format style as on our website) that are not already listed and (c) pdf copies of the newly added HPC publications. Further instructions can be found in the template. For each proposal one of the named applicants should be present at our meeting, and this will hopefully be the project leader (part of their name is used in the code e05-***), to answer any questions put forward by members. For large time requests, we may ask for one of the named applicants to give a short summary of the proposed work or a short presentation. Note that I upload a summary and all proposals within the restricted part of our website before the meeting.

Further meetings planned for: July 2012 and November 2012.
Traditional location of our meetings: University College London, within either the Ramsay Lecture Theatre, Chemistry Building or Library/Seminar room, near the roof of Kathleen Lonsdale Building: Instructions - map.


Deadline for interim HPC time on HECToR: 10am Tuesday 31st January .
Since the arrival of Phase 3 has meant a period of downtime and a larger period of free time, it has been decided to postpone the next meeting until the morning of our conference. The time we would have allocated for January to March at this meeting is therefore available and it is planed that this is shared between the best five ambitious proposals that I receive before the end of January. Please use this template with the red text replaced with your text in black and the file should be renamed "xxxxx-yyy-Zzz.pdf or .doc" where xxxxx is the theme code, yyy is the group leader code and Zzz is the first three letters of the principle user (see previous proposals on our website!). Note that each of these interim proposals should be be 10M AUs (or greater, but any unspent AUs will be taken back after our next meeting at the end of March) Good Luck.
