16 March 2023 — Barcelona — The Barcelona Supercomputing Center is working towards the creation of digital twins that can virtually represent cell-level systems to computationally predict the response of potential treatments. These cell-level simulations can be personalised with patient-specific data to capture individuals´ genetic and environmental influences that provide a deeper understanding of the […]
Video: Competence Centres in HPC – their Role in European Innovation
In this video from the HPE Conference, Bastian Koller from HLRS discusses Competence Centres in HPC and their role in European innovation. “The Centres of Excellence (CoE) develop leading edge technologies to promote the adoption of advanced HPC in industry and public administration, and increase competitiveness for European companies and SMEs through access to CoE expertise and services.”
EPEEC Project Fosters Heterogeneous HPC Programming in Europe
The European Programming Environment for Programming Productivity of Heterogeneous Supercomputers (EPEEC) is a project that aims to combine European made tools for programming models and performance tools that could help to relieve the burden of targeting highly-heterogeneous supercomputers. It is hoped that this project will make researchers jobs easier as they can more effectively use large scale HPC systems.
Podcast: Sciencetown Investigates Extreme Computing at SC19
In this Sciencetown podcast, we follow experts from around the world to the epicenter of supercomputing – the annual, North American supercomputing conference or SC19. We ask them to weigh in on how the future of computers, artificial intelligence, machine learning and more are coming together to shape the way we explore and understand our world.
RISC-V Lagarto is First Open Source Chip Developed in Spain
The Barcelona Supercomputing Center has coordinated the manufacture of the first open source chip developed in Spain. “Lagarto is an important step in the search of the BSC, led by the center’s director, Mateo Valero, to develop European computing technology. This project is based on the premise that the instruction set of the future processors must be open source to ensure transparency and minimize dependence.”
