ARCHIVED: What are my responsibilities as a TeraGrid user?
Note: After ten years of service to the national science and engineering community, the TeraGrid project has ended. It is succeeded by a new National Science Foundation (NSF) program, the Extreme Science and Engineering Discovery Environment (XSEDE). You should move any data stored on TeraGrid systems to an alternate storage resource. If you have leftover service units on your TeraGrid allocation, or if your research requires further use of high performance computational, visualization, storage, and network resources, consider applying for an allocation on one or more XSEDE digital services.
The TeraGrid, including its hardware, software, network connections, and data, is a vital but limited resource for the scientific community. Therefore, TeraGrid Resource Provider (RP) sites have an obligation to protect its resources and ensure they are used properly. Additionally, RP sites have legal and other obligations to protect resources and the intellectual property of the users.
To ensure that TeraGrid users know and understand their responsibilities, all researchers who have been awarded a TeraGrid allocation or added to an existing one must read, sign, and submit the User Responsibility Form before their accounts are activated.
To review the TeraGrid user responsibilities, see the "Requirements" section of the TeraGrid User Responsibility Form.
