Call for proposals: 2010 consortium research projects

In the past three years, the CHPC flagship project grants have provided the partnership framework to support the development of several noteworthy research projects (View more information about the previous flagship projects). As the results of this fruitful partnership, the projects have made significant progress in fulfilling their research missions.

In 2010, the CHPC intends to leverage the expertise of computational researchers in addressing a variety of scientific- and socio-economic challenges whose solution can be advanced with the utilisation of innovative high performance computing (HPC) solution(s). Considering that the nature of these grand challenges can be highly intricate, their solutions may require a multifaceted range of expertise which may well be dispersed over different niche research groups within the country. The objective of the consortium research projects is to provide a leveraging mechanism to harness collaboration between South African-based scientists and promote an exchange of knowledge amongst the members of our HPC communities.
