Development scenarios for a European infrastructure in high-performance computing
The European Commission's Information Society and Media DG has launched a call for tenders for development scenarios for a European infrastructure in high-performance computing (HPC). The study should explore and assess if and how the needs for an HPC type of infrastructure can be covered by an EU funding scheme, as well as possible options to coordinate and fund it at the EU level. Notably, it should take into account that experience gained and lessons learned from deployments in this field should be transferred not only to research in computational science, but also to strengthen European industry (manufacturers, software developers and potential HPC service providers).For further information, please contact: European Commission Directorate-General Information Society and Media Attn: Maria Ramalho J-54 01/28 B-1049 Brussels Tel +32-2 298 6914 Fax +32-2 299 3127 To see the full details of the call, please consult the following web address: http://fp6.cordis.lu/index.cfm?fuseaction=UserSite.FP6DetailsTenderPage&call_id=295(opens in new window)
