Guidelines for submitting a project proposal
for the APE Computers at DESY-Zeuthen
The deadline for project proposals for the period from 01 July 2009 to 30 June 2010
is 30 April 2009.
Proposals do not require a special form; they should include the following
information:
Title of the project
Members of the project
Here the names of all scientists should be listed who spend the main
part of their time on the project.
Coordinator of the project
Name, address, email address
Scientific goals of the project
Please give a short introduction and a description that allows experts
to understand your project (approximately 3 pages).
Numerical methods to be employed in the project.

known, please supply references)
Dimensions
Please give the lattice sizes you plan to use, the necessary statistics,
etc.
Current status of the project
Even after an approval of the project by the peer review board, computing
time will not be allocated before the program codes for the APE
computers have been developed and tested.
Minimum computing power required to carry out the project
(in units of crates, e.g. 128
APEmille processors or 256 apeNEXT processors resp.), as well as the desired
partitioning (board, unit, crate or rack).
