FAQ

How can I obtain an account with Calcul Québec?

Consult the page “Procedures” if your are in the academic sector. Businesses should send a request to info@calculquebec.ca.

How should I acknowledge Calcul Québec in my publications?

We suggest you use this text:
Computations were made on the supercomputer name-of-the-server from name-of-the-university, managed by Calcul Québec and Compute Canada. The operation of this supercomputer is funded by the Canada Foundation for Innovation (CFI), Ministère de l’Économie, des Sciences et de l’Innovation du Québec (MESI) and le Fonds de recherche du Québec – Nature et technologies (FRQ-NT).

What should I do if I have a new supervisor or if I work in several groups?

You must apply for a new role in the CCDB using the link “Apply for a New Role” under the “My Account” tab. You can choose whether this role will be your primary role or not, and whether your former role should be disabled.

Is it possible to be part of several projects, with multiple supervisors?

Yes it is. If you are the regular collaborator of a PI, you should probably request a new role with the PI (see above). Otherwise, a PI can also add any user to on of his projects using the “Manage Resource Allocation Project Members” page
