The Mediterranean Open Access Network (MedOANet) project was promoted by Cineca with the goal of identifying strategies , frameworks and policies for the open access in 6 countries placed in the Mediterranen area .
Energy efficiency is already a primary concern for any computer design system and it is unanonimously recognized that future Exascale systems will be strongly constrained by their power consumption. This is why the Mont-Blanc project , which was launched on 01-10-2011 ,has set itself the following objective : to design a new type of computer architecture capable of setting future global High Perfomance Computer (HPC) standards that will deliver Exascale performance while using 15 to 30 times less energy.
With the accelerating materials development cycles, the development of simulation approaches for predictive, de-novo characterization and optimization of materials and device properties emerges as a grand challenge to European R&D. A unified multi-disciplinary approach towards the deployment of models, tools, algorithms and simulation and visualization techniques is required to transform isolated solutions for specific problems into comprehensive, industry-ready platforms, which are capable of predicting the properties of complex materials on the basis of their constitutive elements. While many techniques exist to address the specific questions, a lack of integration of the existing methods into readily available multi-scale modelling platforms has to date limited the impact of materials-modelling techniques in materials design. In this project we will develop an integrated e-infrastructure for multi-scale materials modelling, where expert groups unite with computational resource providers to deliver an integrated infrastructure.
Communicate historical content to a wide and varied audience is an increasingly felt task that need new ways to attract and involve people with compelling arguments. For involving the audience of non-professionals is important to develop appropriate solutions, mixing scientifically sound content with immediacy and ease of access, starting perhaps from familiar issues in order to avoid a strain on that part of the public less at ease with historical topics.
Computer applications of virtual reality are a valuable tool to provide new means of access to the history of a city. A virtual visitor can roam at will in the streets or stand on a tower or take off and fly over the present day city or its historical reconstruction, can walk under the porticoes or give e closer look at the battlements of the Asinelli tower. The presence of a "time machine", available through the computer, allows visitors to venture into the past and see how the same location changed in different historical periods.
The reasons for the aforementioned transformation are manifold: legal aspects, regulations, business requirements, economic factors, etc. Technological trends such as SOA, Software as a Service, Virtualisation are influencing the way in which IT services are rendered. Model-based approaches and IT-Governance are prominent candidates to bridge evolving business contexts and IT, in order to adapt the provisioning of IT for business needs. This challenge can be met by capitalizing on semantic
2003 Po River Delta Park: Reconstruction of the landscape
Software: Visman (CINECA), ERMapper, Terravista (Terrex)
The Partnership for Advanced Computing in Europe prepares the creation of a persistent pan-European HPC service, consisting of several tier-0 centres providing European researchers with access to capability computers and forming the top level of the European HPC ecosystem. PRACE is a project funded in part by the EU’s 7th Framework Programme.
The Partnership for Advanced Computing in Europe aims at the creation of a persistent pan-European HPC service, consisting of up to six tier-0 centres providing European researchers with access to capability computers and forming the top level of the European HPC ecosystem. PRACE is a project funded in part by the EU’s 7th Framework Programme.
Each system will provide computing power of several Petaflop/s (one quadrillion operations per second) in midterm. On the longer term (2019) Exaflop/s (one quintillion) computing power will be targeted by PRACE. Users will be supported by experts in porting, scaling, and optimizing applications to novel, highly parallel computer architectures.
