High Performance Computing is becoming a fundamental tool for the progress of science and engineering and as such for economic competitiveness. The growing complexity of parallel computers is leading to a situation where code owners and users are not aware of the detailed issues affecting the performance of their applications. The result is often an inefficient use of the...

ACTRIS-2 addresses the scope of integrating state-of-the-art European ground-based stations for the long term observation of aerosols, clouds and short lived gases by capitalizing on the work of FP7-ACTRIS. ACTRIS-2 aims to achieve the construction of auser-oriented RI, unique in the EU-RI landscape. ACTRIS-2 provides 4-D integrated high-quality data from near-surface to high...

GrowSmarter aims to:

  • Improve the quality of life for European citizens by better mobility, housing and the quality of urban infrastructure while improving the citizens economy by lower energy costs and creating as much as 1500 new jobs (on the demonstration level).
  • Reduce the environmental impact by lower energy needs by 60 % and increased use of...

The consortium of this European Training Network (ETN) "BigStorage: Storage-based Convergence between HPC and Cloud to handle Big Data will train future data scientists in order to enable them and us to apply holistic and interdisciplinary approaches for taking advantage of a data overwhelmed world, which requires HPC and Cloud infrastructures with a redefinition of storage...

The SECURED architecture created a trusted and virtualized execution environment allowing different actors (e.g. single users, corporate ICT managers, network providers) to install on-demand and execute multiple security applications on the network edge device to protect the traffic of a specific user. This approach reduced the load onto the mobile devices, guaranteeing...

Energy efficiency is a generic term which refers to the ratio between the useful energy output of a process and the energy input to this process. The interest on building more energy-efficient DC has increased along with the outburst of Cloud computing, the use of Internet and of Data Centres (DC) to enable this paradigm. Whereas energy efficiency is necessary to reduce...

The main objective of the LIGHTNESS project was the design, implementation and experimental evaluation of high performance data centre interconnects through the introduction of innovative photonic switching and transmission inside data centres. Harnessing the power of optics enabled data centres to effectively cope with the unprecedented demand growth to be faced in the near...

Over the 10 years prior to the initiation on this project, significant investments had been made in both the European Union and the USA for developing scientific data infrastructures to support the work of research communities, and in improving shared access to data. On both sides of the Atlantic, there is a shared understanding that solutions must be global and that the...

At the time, EUDAT was the proposal for the next stage in the realisation of the vision of “data as infrastructure”. The EUDAT consortium included representatives from each stage of the value chain that has evolved to deliver scientific knowledge to researchers, citizens, industry and society as a whole. It included funding agencies that invest in research...

The main goal of EUBrazilOpenBio was to deploy an e-Infrastructure of open access resources (data, tools, services), to make significant strides towards supporting the needs and requirements of the biodiversity scientific community. This data e-Infrastructure resulted from the federation and integration of substantial individual existing data, cloud, and grid EU and Brazilian...
