This project enables Australian Researchers open, merit based access to the National Computational Infrastructure’s (NCI) high-performance computing facility. The NCI provides researchers in universities, science agencies and industry with world-class, integrated high-performance computing/data services that enable high-impact research in every field of science and technology. The core capital infrastructure is supported through the NCRIS program, and the Administering Organisation and the Partner Organisations fund the operational costs. This project provides 30 per cent of the operational time of the NCI facility to Australian researchers who are not based at a Partner organisation. Benefits include ensuring merit based access to this national facility for all researchers, the acceleration in the design of new materials for the energy, health, and IT sectors, understanding how our oceans and atmosphere drive climate variability and extremes that impacts agricultural production, and the development of novel therapeutics for fighting multidrug-resistant infections.",4320000.0,https://dataportal.arc.gov.au/NCGP/Web/Grant/Grant/LE190100021,LE190100021 — The Australian National University IC190100031,The University of Sydney,Prof Rutger Vervoort,"ARC Training Centre in Data Analytics for Resources and Environments (DARE). Understanding the cumulative impact of actions regarding the use of our resources has important long-term consequences for Australia’s economic, societal and environmental health. Yet despite the importance of these cumulative impacts, and the availability of data, many decisions and policies are based on limited amounts of data and rudimentary data analysis, with little appreciation of the critical role that understanding and quantifying uncertainty plays in the process. The aim of Data Analytics in Resources and Environment (DARE) is to develop and deliver the data science skills and tools for Australia’s resource industries to make the best possible evidence-based decisions in exploiting and stewarding the nation’s natural resources.",4187178.0,https://dataportal.arc.gov.au/NCGP/Web/Grant/Grant/IC190100031,IC190100031 — The University of Sydney IC190100020,Queensland University of Technology,Prof Yuantong Gu,"ARC Industrial Transformation Training Centre for Joint Biomechanics.
