PRACE prototype access

One of the PRACE project tasks is prototype testing for supporting decisions for the installation of the future HPC Petascale systems in Europe. In this context some pre-production prototypes have been installed at host centres of PRACE partners and researchers are now invited to test their codes in these systems.
