The IDRIS User Committee

The role of the User Committee is to be a liaison for dialogue with IDRIS so that all the projects which received allocations of computer resources can be successfully conducted in the best possible conditions. The committee transmits the observations of all the users regarding the functionning of the centre and the issues are discussed with IDRIS in order to determine the appropriate changes to be made.

The User Committee consists of 2 members elected from each scientific discipline (24 members in 2014) who can be contacted at the following address:

The mandate of part of the user committee has expired and we have organized elections for its partial renewal.

19 positions were to be renewed: 1 CT1, 1 CT2a, 2 CT2b, 2 CT3, 1 CT4, 2 CT5, 2 CT6, 2 CT7, 1 CT8, 2 CT9, and 3 CT10.

At the end of the application period (May 13, 2025) for the partial election of the IDRIS User Committee, 9 candidacies were received for 19 positions to be filled.

According to the committee's statutes, since the number of candidates is less than the number of positions to be filled, all candidates are declared elected.

Thus, joining the committee (already comprising 6 members at mandate mid-term):

The composition of the new user committee is therefore as follows:

• CT1 : P. Wautelet, S. Nguyen , R. Pennel
• CT2a : A. Cadiou
• CT2b : Pas de représentant
