To apply, you must be a scientist in Swedish academia, at least at the level of assistant professor and have been a Principle Investigator of a NAISS Medium Compute project or similar.
This round will open in March 2025.
The following resources are planned to be included in this round.
This may change before the round is opened.

Alvis |
C3SE |
This resource is only intended for AI/ML research.

|
This resource is only intended for research on AI/ML or research using AI/ML methods.
Allocations on Alvis will be scaled and transferred to the new NAISS system Arrhenius. It is NAISS's best estimate now that this will occur early in 2026. More information will be announced as procurement and installation of Arrhenius progresses.
The Alvis cluster is a national NAISS resource dedicated to Artificial Intelligence and
Machine Learning research.
Note: Significant generation of training data is expected to be done elsewhere.
The system is built around Graphical Processing Units
(GPUs) accelerator cards. The first phase of the resource has 160 NVIDIA T4, 44
V100, and 4 A100 GPUs. The second phase is based on 340 NVIDIA A40 and 336
A100 GPUs.

Allocations on Tetralith will be scaled and transferred to the new NAISS system Arrhenius. It is NAISS's best estimate now that this will occur late in 2025. More information will be announced as procurement and installation of Arrhenius progresses.
Tetralith is a general computational resource hosted by NSC at Linköping University.
Tetralith servers have two Intel Xeon Gold 6130 processors, providing 32 cores per server. 1844 of the servers are equipped with 96 GiB of primary memory and 64 servers with 384 GiB. All servers are interconnected with a 100 Gbit/s Intel Omni- Path network which is also used to connect the existing storage. Each server has a local SSD disk for ephemeral storage (approx. 200GiB per thin node, 900GiB per fat node). An IBM Spectrum Scale system comprises the centre storage. 170 of the Tetralith nodes are equipped with one NVIDIA Tesla T4 GPU each as well as a high- performance NVMe SSD scratch disk of 2TB.
