ACENET has launched a new program called the Embedded Technical Support program. 

The deadline to apply for the current call is June 12, 2023.

The program is designed to assist researchers in any discipline at Atlantic Canadian post-secondary institutions to adopt or improve their use of advanced computing techniques and resources in their research. It pairs technical experts with innovative projects that have high potential for success and impact, and that require advanced computing resources, programming support and/or in-depth technical expertise. Some examples:

  • Code parallelization, profiling and optimization for HPC systems 
  • Scientific or data visualization
  • Data analytics
  • Workflow migration from the desktop to a cluster
  • Research portal creation on a cloud platform
  • Incorporation of advanced computing into research programs

Successful projects under this program are able to access focused and dedicated support from a research consultant for a period of two to four months. During this period, the ACENET staff member will spend up to 50% of their time working on the project.

Details and documents can be found on the Consulting & Support page. The call document [PDF] and application form [Word] are also attached.
