The EuroHPC JU has launched 3 new RI projects. The projects aim to bring the EU and its partners in the EuroHPC JU closer to developing independent microprocessor and HPC technology and advance a sovereign European HPC ecosystem. The European Processor Initiative (EPI SGA2), The European PILOT and t

Since the 2000s, the EU has been pooling resources to procure bigger machines. With two top 10 computers set to start operations this year, the strategy is beginning to bear fruit.

With funding from the European High Performance Computing Joint Undertaking (EuroHPC JU), the projects EuroCC and CASTIEL started in September 2020 for a two-year period. The projects aim at building a European network of 33 national HPC competence centres to bridge the existing HPC skills gaps whil

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

The European High Performance Computing Joint Undertaking (EuroHPC JU) has launched two calls for expression of interest for the selection of hosting entities to host and operate new supercomputers. One of these machines will be a high-end supercomputer, with exascale capabilities, capable of a perf

The European Quantum Industry Consortium (QuIC) is a new private member of the European High Performance Computing Joint Undertaking (EuroHPC JU). The participation of QuIC will support the addition of quantum-computing capabilities to European supercomputing infrastructures, further bolstering Euro

The European High Performance Computing Joint Undertaking (EuroHPC JU) has launched a call for tender for the procurement of a pre-exascale supercomputer. The system, called MareNostrum5, will be hosted by the Barcelona Supercomputing Center (BSC) and will be capable of executing at least 205 Petafl

With funding from the European High Performance Computing Joint Undertaking (EuroHPC JU), the project High-Performance Computer and Quantum Simulator hybrid (HPCQS) kicked off today with the objective of integrating quantum simulators in already existing European supercomputers. Hybrid computing, bl

The European High Performance Computing Joint Undertaking’s pre-exascale supercomputer LUMI, located in Finland, has entered the TOP500 list of the world’s most powerful supercomputers for the first time. Thanks to its CPU partition called LUMI-C, LUMI is now ranked at 76th place of the list.
