Dear HGC Users,

Human Genome Center

Account renewal procedure for the next fiscal year
and submission of User's Reports

Thank you for your continued use of the services of our center.

Your HGC Supercomputer system account will expire on March 31, 2014.

In order to keep your account, please complete the renewal procedure 1.
If you wish to terminate your account, please complete the termination procedure 2. The deadline for both procedures is March 31, 2014.

As operational period was scheduled to last until the end of December 2014, we accept the application for use whose term is until the end of December 2014 in this account renewal procedure at the end of the fiscal year.

In 2015, the next Supercomputer system (Shirokane3 (tentative)) will be running.

Shirokane2 will keep on running after January 2015. We are organizing the extension of its operational period. For use of Shirokane2 after January 2015, we'll announce you in summer 2014.

Databases and Web services are also in the process of organization. We'll announce you when the system is prepared.
