Roadmap for Research Infrastructure

UiO's roadmap

Behovet for langsiktige investeringer er stort, og UiO har derfor utarbeidet et veikart for prioriteringer. Dette dokumentet var oppdatert i 2022.

Du kan laste det ned her: UiOs veikart til forskningsinfrastruktur


RCN's roadmap

澳门葡京手机版app下载sr?det utarbeidet et norsk veikart for investeringer i nasjonal forskningsinfrastruktur.

Leiested

Nasjonal leiestedsrapport

Denne rapporten inneholder forslag til leiestedsmodell og var utarbeidet av ei arbeidsgruppe nedsatt av Universitets- og h?gskoler?det (UHR) i 2013.

Du kan laste ned rapporten her: Leiested - H?ndtering av eksperimentell infrastruktur ifm. eksternt finansierte prosjekter i UoH-sektoren (pdf)

Useful links

You can find a lot of useful information in the UiO central webpages:

Sigma2

For all research projects, efforts should be made to apply for funding to cover use of e-infrastructure when submitting proposals for research funding. Exceptions are EU projects and other EU funding initiatives.

Guidelines for use

  1. The use of Sigma2 resources should be reflected in the projects' budgets and accounts.
  2. Research projects should attempt to have a quota per funding source, if possible, to easily track funds versus consumption.
  3. For all EU applications to Horizon Europe, infrastructure costs must be visible in the application budget, but only as in-kind contribution. The quantity of resources must be agreed upon with Sigma2 before submitting the application (contact@sigma2.no). After the application is approved by the EU, Sigma2 Resource Allocation Committee access must be applied for.
  4. The exception from charging the use of Sigma2 resources in projects funded by EU funding initiatives applies to all projects where we compete with applicants from EU countries, e.g., ESA projects.
  5. All research projects, regardless of the funder, must apply to the Sigma2 Resource Allocation Committee to be allocated the necessary resources. Applications are usually made twice a year, in February (for the period April 1 – October 1) and August (for the period October 1 – April 1). In the application form to Sigma2, the Cost Centre (koststed) and Activity number (delprosjekt) for the specific project must be provided.
  6. The current price from Sigma2 (used when applying for funds) is:
  • 0.05 NOK per CPU hour
  • 0.10 NOK per CPU hour for EU projects

Effective from the 1st of October of 2024:

  • NIRD Data Peak - 950 NOK per TB/year
  • NIRD Data Lake - 510 NOK per TB/year
  • Backup - 510 NOK per TB/year
  • 1230 NOK per TB/year for EU projects
NB! The use of Sigma2 does not trigger VAT.

All project applications, when relevant, must include high-performance computing to contribute to covering the faculty's cost of using Sigma2. The University of Oslo (UiO) receives a collective invoice from Sigma2. This is distributed to the faculties based on usage. MN pays the bill and internally invoices the units for their use each tertial. This does not apply to EU projects, see bullet point 3 above.

Fagr?d

Infrastructure calls

The Research Council of Norway

The Research Council of Norway is planning to open a call for funding for national research infrastructure with an application deadline in mid-November 2025 (INFRASTRUCTURE).

Nordforsk

Nordforsk is now announcing funding for 12-15 Nordic Research Infrastructure Hubs.
