EuroHPC - The European Strategy for Supercomputing
In this deck from the HPC User Forum at Argonne, Jean-Marc Denis presents: EuroHPC - The European Strategy for Supercomputing. "The EuroHPC Joint Undertaking is a 1 billion Euro joint initiative between the EU and European countries to develop a World Class Supercomputing Ecosystem in Europe. EuroHPC will permit the EU and participating countries to coordinate their efforts and share resources with the objective of deploying in Europe a world-class supercomputing infrastructure and a competitive innovation ecosystem in supercomputing technologies, applications and skills."

- 4. R&I Activities for strengthening the HPC Ecosystem 4 ■ Technologies, Systems and Applications for extreme computing – Next generation low-power microprocessors – Novel computing architectures, software, and tools (including mixed HPC, AI, Big Data workloads) – Pilot system demonstrators towards Exascale – HPC and Big Data application platforms in strategic European industrial sectors – Support to (science-based) Centres of Excellence ■ Supporting large-scale HPC capacity building and widening HPC use – A network of national HPC competence centres and their coordination – Support to innovative SMEs – Support to large-scale training and skills building Centres of Excellence HPC/Big Data testbeds and Applications More than 360 M€ for R&I activities in 2019-2020
Editor's Notes
- Current machines (pre-exa et mid-range): no message. No link between R&I and short-term acquisition projects Future machines (exa): goal is to join the R&I activities with the exascale investments. Exascale machines will use EU R&I technological outputs.
