Ac­know­ledge­ment State­ment

To justify current and future funding of HPC systems and services provided by PC² it is of high importance to provide the public funding agencies, state government and university administration with information about the scientific outcomes of the research that is enabled by our infrastructure.

Hence, all publications, where PC² computing resources were used, must include the one of the following acknowledgements:

Project Type / Reason Acknowledgement
substantial support by PC² personnel

English: "The support of  [name of contact person] from PC2 with [activity] is gratefully acknowledged.", e.g. "The support of John Doe from PC2 with optimizing the file system performance for the MiniMD application is gratefully acknowledged."

German: "Die Autoren danken [Name] vom PC2 für die Untersützung bei [Aktivität]."

small / test

English: "The authors gratefully acknowledge the funding of this project by computing time provided by the Paderborn Center for Parallel Computing (PC2)."

German: "Die Autoren danken dem Paderborn Center for Parallel Computing (PC2) für die Unterstützung dieses Projektes durch Rechenzeit."

normal / large (NHR)

Cluster Name(s) / Rechnername(n): Noctua 1, Noctua 2, Noctua 1/2, ...

Project abbreviation / Projektabkürzung: e.g. hpc-prf-...

Version A (recommended):

English: The authors gratefully acknowledge the computing time provided to them on the high-performance computers [Cluster name/s] at the NHR Center PC2. These are funded by the Federal Ministry of Education and Research and the state governments participating on the basis of the resolutions of the GWK for the national highperformance computing at universities (www.nhr-verein.de/unsere-partner).

German: Die Autoren bedanken sich für die ihnen zur Verfügung gestellte Rechenzeit auf den Hochleistungsrechnern [Rechnername/n] am NHR-Zentrum PC2. Diese werden auf Grundlage der Beschlüsse der GWK zum Nationalen Hochleistungsrechnen an Hochschulen (NHR) durch das Bundesministerium für Bildung und Forschung und die am NHR beteiligten Landesregierungen (www.nhr-verein.de/unsere-partner) gefördert.

Version B:

English: The authors gratefully acknowledge the computing time provided to them on the high-performance computer [Cluster name/s] at the NHR Center PC2. This is funded by the Federal Ministry of Education and Research and the state governments participating on the basis of the resolutions of the GWK for the national high-performance computing at universities (www.nhr-verein.de/unsere-partner). The computations for this research were performed using computing resources under project hpc-prf-[project abbreviation].

German: Die Autoren bedanken sich für die ihnen zur Verfügung gestellte Rechenzeit auf dem Hochleistungsrechner [Rechnername/n] am NHR-Zentrum PC2. Diese wird auf Grundlage der Beschlüsse der GWK zum Nationalen Hochleistungsrechnen an Hochschulen (NHR) durch das Bundesministerium für Bildung und Forschung und die am NHR beteiligten Landesregierungen (www.nhr-verein.de/unsere-partner) gefördert. Die Berechnungen für diese Forschung wurden mit Rechenressourcen unter dem Projekt hpc-prf-[Projektabkürzung] durchgeführt.

Version C (contact pc2-support@uni-paderborn.de before using):

English: The authors would like to thank the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research and the state governments (www.nhr-verein.de/unsere-partner) for supporting this work/project as part of the joint funding of National High Performance Computing at Universities (NHR).

German: Die Autoren bedanken sich beim Bundesministerium für Bildung und Forschung und den Landesregierungen (www.nhr-verein.de/unsere-partner), die diese/s Arbeit/Projekt im Rahmen der gemeinsamen Förderung des Nationalen Hochleistungsrechnens an Hochschulen (NHR) unterstützen.

Users from Paderborn University are encouraged to enter these publications into the Research Information System (RIS) and to tag the publication with the project Computing Resources Provided by the Paderborn Center for Parallel Computing (PC2). You can use the short term "PC2" to search for the appropriate project in RIS.

For further information on getting access to RIS and adding a publication see this short tutorial.
