Key observations discussed in this report include:• The NCRC database has records for about 3,900 requests.• NCRC has processed about 3,200 requests.• RELAP5-3D is the most requested code, followed by Bison, Griffin, and Pronghorn.• National laboratory users comprise the largest set of requestors.• About half of requests are completed within 22 days, and 75% of requests are completed within 51 days (just over seven weeks).• Maintenance and development for the NCRC system and oversight and maintenance for code distribution infrastructure (GitHub repositories, servers, etc.) are the two largest investments in the NCRC project.
