Plasma science has been at the forefront of HPC for several decades, driving and, at the same time, benefiting greatly from innovative hardware and software developments. The overall goal of Plasma-PEPSC is to take this development to the next level, enabling scientific breakthroughs in plasma science Grand Challenges through exascale computing and extreme-scale data...
The main goal is to design an Extreme near-data platform to enable consumption, mining and processing of distributed and federated data without needing to master the logistics of data access across heterogeneous datalocations and pools. We go beyond traditional passive or bulk data ingested from storage systems towards next generation near-data processing platforms both in...
Data has become one of the most valuable assets, driving the digital transformation across many sectors. Current data mining solutions are optimized to deal with specific data requirements, but fail to cope as the data characteristics become extreme. There is therefore an urgent need for novel and holistic approaches to enable the development, deployment and efficient...
Vitamin-V aims to develop a complete RISC-V open-source software stack for cloud services with iso-performance to its clouddominantx86 counterpart and a powerful virtual execution environment for software development, validation, verification, and test that considers the relevant RISC-V ISA extensions for cloud deployment. Specifically, commercial cloud systems make use of...
Building on the EPI and EUPilot project outcomes, RISER will develop the first all-European RISC-V cloud server infrastructure, significantly enhancing Europe's genuine strategic autonomy. RISER will leverage and validate open hardware high-speed interfaces combined with a fully-featured operating system environment and runtime system, enabling the integration of low-power...
MODELAIR proposes a combination of theoretical, experimental, numerical, and data-driven science that will simulate, control and design new disruptive technologies for future sustainable cities and will provide specialized training to 10 doctoral candidates (DCs) to make these new technologies available to city Councils and relevant industrial sectors.
The COVID-19 pandemic has starkly demonstrated the need for better disease intelligence that is capable of anticipating and identifying epidemic risks and outbreaks. This includes emerging and re-emerging mosquito-borne disease (MBD) risks. In the absence of effective vaccine solutions for most MBDs, attention has turned to vector management as an effective, but underutilized opportunity for...
CloudStars is an Open Source Research Mobility network in the field of Cloud Computing technology. The proposal combines twelve academic institutions in seven European countries (Spain, Germany, Netherlands, Italy, Austria, Poland, Switzerland), two academic institutions in third-party countries (Ecuador, Argentina), and three industrial laboratories from IBM (USA,...
Keeping in mind the potential opportunities, risks and limitations offered by Artificial Intelligence (AI), AI4CCAM will develop an open environment for integrating trustworthy-by-design AI models of vulnerable road user behaviour anticipation in urban traffic conditions to ensure improved road safety and user acceptance.
Leveraging the Trustworthy AI...
OptimESM will develop a novel generation of Earth system models (ESMs), combining high resolution with an unprecedented representation of key physical and biogeochemical processes. These models will be used to deliver cutting-edge and policy-relevant knowledge around the consequences of reaching or exceeding different levels of global warming, including the risk of rapid...
