The Ministry of Research, Science and Technology has just released an online survey to assess the needs of New Zealand researchers for High Performance Computing and eResearch.

[Apologies for cross-posting]

This is your chance to give your opinion on the New Zealand's future investments in research infrastructure.

MoRST will be using the results of this survey to advise the government and inform the Research Infrastructure Advisory Group (RIAG) process, on the types of HPC usage, and requirements for HPC, among researchers. MoRST wants to gain insights into the uptake of eResearch practices and the potential benefits to research through using high performance computational resources.

Who is the survey for

The survey is aimed at researchers working 'at the bench' rather than at institutional level.  It need not be completed in one go - it can be saved and resumed later. The survey usually takes about 8-10 minutes. People do not need to complete the whole survey - only parts relevant to them.
