XSEDE Allocation System to Receive Makeover

Link to story

XSEDE is a set of resources and systems that thousands of researchers, scientists and engineers regularly use to do groundbreaking science. But how does an XSEDE user actually request time on supercomputers or ask for time with XSEDE-supported resource experts? As of now, XSEDE users turn to POPS (Partnerships Online Proposal System), a system that has been in place for users of NSF HPC users since the late 1990s. POPS, however useful it is for XSEDE, cannot be pulled out as a separate system – over the years it has become inextricably intertwined with its native environment.
