Eighth Call of the Artemisa infrastructure for computing in Artificial Intelligence

Wed, 19/05/2021 - 01:21

From May 17th to June 13th 2021 the seventh call to apply for the use of the Artemisa infrastructure for research work that requires computing in artificial intelligence and machine learning will be open.  

Any research group of the Spanish public universities or public research centres can apply to this call.

Artemisa is currently composed of 23 servers that host one NVIDIA GPU Volta V100 each, especially suitable for computing in artificial intelligence. In addition to these servers, which must be used in “batch” mode, there are two interfaces where users can previously test their software. Artemisa also boasts a last generation CPU and storage system. In the coming weeks, 11 new servers with two processors and one GPU NVIDIA Ampere A100 each will be fully operative together with a new server with 8 GPUs of the said model.

To apply, research groups should go to the Artemisa’s web site:

https://artemisa.ific.uv.es/

and follow the steps described there.

The applications will be evaluated by a committee that will take into account the scientific interest of the application, the research group record, the adequacy to the Artemisa’s resources of the proposed computation, in particular the use of artificial intelligence, and the availability of the requested resources. Additionally, the societal impact of the proposal could be taken into account, especially if its objectives are listed in the priority matrix of the RIS3 of Comunitat Valenciana.

Artemisa is funded by the European Union and the Conselleria of Education, Research, Culture and Sports of the Generalitat Valenciana through the Project IDIFEDER/2018/048 of the Operative Programme FEDER 2014-2020 of the Comunitat Valenciana.
