Edge Compute

The University of Manchester’s Research Lifecycle Programme is a series of investments of over £15 million, rolled out over five years. There are more than 20 projects spread across three broad areas; research information, research processes and e-research infrastructure. Taken together, they will remove administrative and technological barriers and enable researchers to focus on their work.
