POP3

The Centre of Excellence on Performance Optimization and Productivity (POP CoE) was initiated in October 2015. The current project, Performance Optimization and Productivity 3 (POP3), is articulated in 3 main pillars: services, users, and co-design. The key element to ensure efficient use of HPC infrastructures is to optimize the performance and efficiency of the applications. POP …

SPECTRUM

The amount of data gathered, shared and processed in frontier research is set to increase steeply in the coming decade, leading to unprecedented data processing, simulation and analysis needs. In particular, the research communities in High Energy Physics and Radio Astronomy are preparing to launch new instruments that require data and compute infrastructures several orders …

OpenSuperQPlus

OpenSuperQplus aims at delivering systems and technology for quantum computers based on superconductors. It thus implements the roadmap of the strategic research agenda for the quantum technology flagship as detailed by the OpenSuperQplus framework partnership from which it emerges. It will deliver integrated demonstrators for research and user purposes, one of which will contain at …

QUADRATURE

Noisy intermediate-scale quantum computers are currently the most powerful quantum computers. Although they are not fault-tolerant, they have proved to be far more efficient than today’s more advanced supercomputers. However, fully error-corrected quantum computers would require millions of qubits to address real-world problems. The EIC-funded QUADRATURE project will rise to the million-qubit challenge by pioneering …

eBRAIN-Health

The complexity of the human brain poses a significant challenge to the investigation and hence understanding of the mechanisms governing its function and dysfunction. Digital twins are virtual models designed to reflect physical objects and offer an attractive approach for neuroscience research. The EU-funded eBRAIN-Health project will generate such virtual models of patients and healthy …

The European PILOT

The European PILOT project (Pilot using Independent, Local and Open Technologies) aims at showcasing an European accelerator, designed, implemented, manufactured, and owned by Europe and based on open source and open standards. Accelerators provide the majority of performance in modern HPC systems and are the fundamental building blocks for Exascale systems. The European PILOT project is an ambitious combination …
