Frequently Asked Questions
What is INCITE? Who can apply? How are proposals reviewed? Since its inception in 2004, the Innovative and Novel Computational Impact on Theory and Experiment, or INCITE, program has allocated a total of nearly five billion processor hours on some of the world’s fastest computers. Research teams from around the globe are eligible to compete for single-project allocations that typically exceed 20 million hours. The mission of INCITE is to enable grand-challenge investigations and discoveries in science and technology that have the potential for impact at the national and global scale. The INCITE proposal site has a list of Frequently Asked Questions (this link will leave the doeleadershipcomputing.org site), however, we also provide a series of podcasts and presentations to describe the INCITE program in more detail. Feel free to contact us if you still have questions or to submit suggestions for additional details about the program you would like to see included here.
