Peer-review board members expressed the view that these were excellent examples
of how an allocation request should be presented and suggested. Some things
noted by the review board were:
- The proposer summarized his/her research in context of the current
state-of-the-art and outlined the computational algorithms and how these
relate to the various subsections of his research.
- The reviewers were provided sufficient information, but not overwhelmed
by details.
- Justification for the service unit request was clear and closely coupled
to each of the computational experiments. As such, if the board needed to
reduce the original request, the reduction could have been done on a
rational basis with minimum disruption to the investigator.
- A summary of previous support was included which
clearly stated how the previous computational results have effected the
latest service unit request.
