Opportunity Information: Apply for 19 534
The National Science Foundation (NSF) funding opportunity titled "Advanced Computing Systems & Services: Adapting to the Rapid Evolution of Science and Engineering Research" (NSF 19-534) seeks proposals from organizations that can act as service providers within NSF's Innovative High-Performance Computing (HPC) program. The basic goal is to expand and strengthen nationally available advanced computing and cyberinfrastructure capabilities that run in real, production operations and that can support a wide variety of computationally intensive and data-intensive research needs across all fields of science and engineering. Rather than focusing on one scientific domain, the solicitation is framed to serve the full breadth of the science and engineering research community, especially projects that require computing power and data capabilities beyond what a single institution or regional resource can realistically provide.
The solicitation is designed to complement NSF's earlier investments in advanced computing by provisioning "resources" in a broad sense, meaning the awards can support either systems (such as computing clusters, storage, or related infrastructure) and/or services (such as user support, data services, specialized platforms, software environments, or other operational capabilities). NSF places these proposed resources into two main categories. Category I, "Capacity Systems," focuses on production-grade computing resources intended to maximize the overall capacity available to researchers, meeting broad and diverse computational and data analytics demands. In other words, these projects are expected to deliver substantial usable throughput and reliable, scalable access for many users and many types of workflows. Category II, "Innovative Prototypes/Testbeds," targets forward-looking and experimental capabilities, encouraging deployments that explore novel technologies, architectures, operating models, and usage modes, along with new applications, methods, and research paradigms that could shape the future of computational and data-driven discovery.
Any resources funded under this opportunity are expected to become part of NSF's Innovative HPC program, which NSF describes as a federation of technically diverse national HPC resources. This program is positioned as complementary to leadership-class computing investments; instead of concentrating only on the very largest flagship systems, it supports a network of advanced resources that are broadly accessible and collectively enable research at a scale that exceeds typical campus or regional capabilities. A key expectation is broad national availability: NSF anticipates that at least 90 percent of the system or services provided through an award will be made available to the science and engineering community through an open, peer-reviewed national allocation process. The solicitation points to allocation and user-support coordination models such as those associated with XSEDE 2.0 (including the XSEDE Resource Allocation Committee process) or another NSF-approved approach that may replace or evolve from XSEDE. If a proposer cannot meet the expectation that at least 90 percent of the resource be accessible through such a national allocation mechanism, they must provide a detailed explanation of why this is not feasible and describe clearly how they will still ensure meaningful national access for the broader U.S. science and engineering community.
From an administrative standpoint, this is a discretionary NSF grant opportunity under CFDA 47.070 (science and technology and other research and development). The opportunity was created on November 20, 2018, with an original proposal deadline of March 4, 2019. NSF anticipated making around four awards, with an award ceiling of $10,000,000 per award. Eligibility is not limited to a single applicant type in the brief listing provided ("Others - see text field entitled Additional Information on Eligibility for clarification"), which signals that NSF intended a wider range of organizations to potentially serve as national-scale providers, subject to the specific eligibility language in the full solicitation.
Overall, the opportunity is best understood as NSF's effort to keep national research computing services aligned with rapid changes in scientific computing and data needs. It emphasizes both immediate, high-utility production capacity for many researchers (Category I) and the exploration of emerging computing directions through prototypes and testbeds (Category II), with the unifying requirement that funded capabilities should be integrated into a coordinated national ecosystem and made broadly accessible through transparent, peer-reviewed allocation and community support processes.Apply for 19 534
