This project enables Australian Researchers open, merit based access to the National Computational Infrastructure’s (NCI) high-performance computing facility. The NCI provides researchers in universities, science agencies and industry with world-class, integrated high-performance computing/data services that enable high-impact research in every field of science and technology. The core capital infrastructure is supported through the NCRIS program, and the Administering Organisation and the Partner Organisations fund the operational costs. This project provides 30 per cent of the operational time of the NCI facility to Australian researchers who are not based at a Partner organisation. Benefits include ensuring merit based access to this national facility for all researchers, the acceleration in the design of new materials for the energy, health, and IT sectors, understanding how our oceans and atmosphere drive climate variability and extremes that impacts agricultural production, and the development of novel therapeutics for fighting multidrug-resistant infections.

该项目使澳大利亚研究人员能够开放，择优访问国家计算基础设施（NCI）的高性能计算设施。NCI为大学、科学机构和工业界的研究人员提供世界一流的综合高性能计算/数据服务，使每个科学技术领域的高影响力研究成为可能。核心资本基础设施通过NCRIS方案得到支持，管理组织和伙伴组织为业务费用提供资金。该项目将国家癌症研究所设施30%的运作时间提供给不在伙伴组织工作的澳大利亚研究人员。 其好处包括确保所有研究人员都能以优异的成绩获得这一国家设施，加速能源，卫生和IT部门新材料的设计，了解我们的海洋和大气如何驱动气候变化和极端影响农业生产，以及开发新的治疗方法来对抗多重耐药感染。
