Obtaining access
The access to QCG-Portal and possibility to execute tasks on computing resources is administered at a level of a given HPC center where the software is deployed and configured.
The typical procedure downs to the following 2 steps:
- Registration of a user in an HPC center.
- Obtaining a computational grant on a given resource (depending on a situation it can be a comercial, research or free grant).
Once completed, users can go to the site's specic QCG-Portal and start using it. Since the platform supports Single-Sign-On, it may even be no need to repeat logging.
PCSS resources
Poznan Supercomputing and Networking Center provides Users and Services Portal, where users can perform the avove two steps in a very intuitive way.

Detailed information on the portal's functionality, including step-by-step instructions for creating an account and applying for grants, can be found in a dedicated Handbook.
