Contact & research collaboration
PF Simulation is an independent research initiative developing a Relativity and Quantum Simulation Development Platform. We welcome academic and research institutions, research networks and commercial R&D labs working toward a shared scientific purpose.
Research is the purpose
Our objective is to advance the simulation development platform and scientific research as a whole, while reducing commercial barriers to collaboration.
PF Simulation is not a commercial enterprise selling products or turnkey solutions. Deployment discussions focus on enabling research through the PF Research Workbench and supporting the people and institutions who contribute to it.
Source code & licensing
Source access follows a Custom Research Gate Agreement: a non-transferable license for verified academic institutions, nonprofit research networks and approved commercial R&D labs. Access is reviewed and limited to the participants and internal research scope specified in the written agreement.
Request access to inspect, run or modify research code for an approved internal project. Provide your name, institution or organization, institutional email and intended research use for review.
Access is granted after institutional verification and acceptance of the written agreement. The license cannot be transferred to another person or organization.
The research license prohibits deploying, hosting or embedding the software as a public or commercial multi-tenant SaaS, API service or public-facing application.
Source access remains restricted to approved participants. The agreement does not permit public redistribution or sharing access outside the approved group.
Internal deployments must meet the documented system requirements and validation procedures for the selected workflows, including applicable memory, container and GPU requirements.
Deployments that do not meet those requirements are outside the supported and validated configuration. Performance expectations apply only to the documented conditions.
Resulting papers, benchmarks and publications must cite PF Simulation. Core architecture optimizations and bug fixes must be shared back with the project before they are used internally.
These requirements help research improvements benefit the platform and its participating community.
This is a controlled, source-available collaboration model, not an unrestricted open-source release. This page does not grant a software license; the written license supplied with the source governs permissions. Third-party components retain their own licenses.
Deployment & general inquiries
Discuss approved standalone use, private institutional installations or controlled research-network access. General questions about the platform and potential collaboration are welcome.
Outline the research question, participating team and how PF Simulation could support your work. We can discuss source access, deployment responsibilities and opportunities to contribute.
Prepare an inquiryHosting, compute, storage and third-party AI API costs may still apply. Donated private research hosting, capacity and operating responsibilities are agreed with the participating organization and remain within the research license.
Deployment & data practicesVoluntary support
We welcome grants, donations and voluntary contributions that advance the platform and its research community. Participation is not conditional on making a donation.
