Step 4: Extend Project Duration

Certain types of projects can also extend the project's duration. More information can be found in the table below.
Project Type | Extend the Duration by UP TO 3 Month | MORE than 3 month | |||
---|---|---|---|---|---|
NHR-large | Possible once during the approved period of the application. Write a short email to pc2-support@uni-paderborn.de with the requested change. | Possible, requires follow-up project application: - you can copy your last project application and re-apply for an extension via our online proposal system: link for NHR-large project, link for NHR-normal project - Copy your previously submitted (finalized) application to avoid filling out all fields again. - Make sure to select "follow-up" on the project data-page. - Use the simplified detailed description template for extensions (DOCX, TeX). | |||
NHR-normal | |||||
NHR-starter | ✕, usually followed up by a NHR-normal/large project | ||||
small | Not possible | Possible, requires follow-up project application: - You can apply for an extension of a small project at PC2 via our online proposal system. - Copy your previously submitted (finalized) application to avoid filling out all fields again. - Make sure to select "follow-up on" the project data-page - List all publications and theses (Bachelor/Master/PhD) that used the compute project in the proposal for the extension | |||

Information for Existing Compute Time Projects

Step 1: Project start. If you do not have a running project and want to apply, check the main system access page
- Check the prerequisites
- Find the right project type
- Apply for resources
Step 2: Manage your running compute time project
- Get access (user accounts and project membership)
- Change the compute contingent, file system quota or HPC system
Step 3: Reporting
- (For multi-year project only) Short progress report
- Acknowledgment statement for publications
- Templates for reports
Step 4: (Optional) Extend project duration
- Process to extend a running project
Step 5: Project end
- Data management
- Final project report
