Ranking Process

How winners will be selected

  • All submissions will receive a careful and complete review
  • Submissions must contain a clear description of the dollar value or scientific value received in order to qualify
  • Volunteers from the HPC User Forum Steering Committee will conduct an initial ranking of the submissions (for the list of the steering committee members, see www. hpcuserforum.com).
    (The final evaluation will then be conducted by selected experts in the specific area/discipline in which the work was done.)
  • Winners will be notified in advance of any public announcement
