High-Performance Computing (HPC) systems are of vital importance to the progress of science and technology. Europe has made significant progress in becoming a leader in HPC through industrial and application providers. In addition ETP4HPC is driving a European HPC vision towards exascale systems. Despite such gains excellence in HPC systems research is fragmented across Europe. EuroLab-4-HPC has the bold overall goal to join forces among excellent research institutions in HPC system across the system stack towards a long-term research agenda that drives innovation and education in HPC systems.
EuroLab-4-HPC is a two-year Horizon 2020 funded project with the bold commitment to build the foundation for a European Research Center of Excellence in High-Performance Computing (HPC) Systems. The main objectives are:
to join HPC system research groups around a long-term HPC research agenda by forming an HPC research roadmap and joining forces behind it
to define an HPC curriculum in HPC technologies and best-practice education/training methods to foster future European technology leaders
to accelerate commercial uptake of new HPC technologies
to build an HPC ecosystem with researchers and other stakeholders, e.g., HPC system providers and venture capital
to form a business model and organization for the EuroLab-4-HPC excellence centre in HPC systems.
