The European High Performance Computing Joint Undertaking (EuroHPC JU) is preparing the transition towards exascale with a new call on Centres of Excellence for HPC. The call will support research and innovation actions that will develop and adapt HPC applications for the exascale and post-exascale era. Adapting existing applications to exascale computing capability requires significant changes and in some cases current application codes cannot run on exascale or post-exascale systems without a complete rethink or substantial code rewrite. The call will support this transition in collaboration with HPC users and relevant stakeholders to bring tangible benefits to European researchers and industries and address current scientific, industrial and societal challenges.

The EuroHPC JU will select the hosting entities for the mid-range supercomputers and will conclude with each of them a hosting agreement, which will permit to establish a stable and structured partnership between the EuroHPC and the hosting entity for the acquisition and operation of the mid-range supercomputer.
