Abstract

An integrated European exascale computing and data infrastructure and ecosystem are key to building a vibrant data economy and enabling Europe to stay at the forefront of scientific discovery and industrial leadership. An ambitious legal and funding framework at the European level, the European High-Performance Computing (HPC) joint undertaking, has been agreed upon between EU countries and will be operational by the end of 2018. Its purpose is to stimulate investment in the area of HPC, with two objectives: making Europe one of the top three HPC powers in the world and acquiring two exascale systems by 2023, with at least one based on European technology. The joint undertaking will combine public and private investments to develop innovative European exascale hardware and software technology components, integrate them into prototype systems co-designed with extreme scale applications, and use public procurement at the European level to invest in operational HPC technologies.
