Advanced computing, quantum algorithms, and data-driven approaches for science, technology and engineering

Description du projet

Formation doctorale en informatique avancée

Quinze boursiers seront formés à l’informatique avancée, aux algorithmes quantiques et aux approches axées sur les données dans le cadre de projets de recherche en physique, en ingénierie et en biologie. Tel est l’objectif du projet AQTIVATE, financé par l’UE. Ce projet de doctorat commun revêt une dimension interdisciplinaire et fait appel à neuf établissements délivrant des diplômes et quatre grands centres de recherche en Europe. Les boursiers effectueront des stages en entreprise et dans des centres de supercalcul. L’objectif du programme est de produire des diplômés aux excellentes perspectives de carrière, en milieu universitaire comme dans le monde de l’industrie, capables d’élaborer des approches innovantes dans leurs domaines scientifiques. Le projet répondra à la nécessité de développer de nouveaux algorithmes et logiciels en vue d’améliorer l’infrastructure de supercalcul et les systèmes d’informatique quantique, en exploitant les technologies numériques à des fins de recherche et d’innovation.

Objectif

The joint doctoral project “Advanced computing, QuanTum algorIthms and data-driVen Approaches for science, Technology and Engineering (AQTIVATE)” will deliver an interdisciplinary training program for fifteen fellows who will learn to utilise high performance computing, develop scalable algorithms and machine learning approaches, and explore quantum computing for research projects from physics, engineering and biology. AQTIVATE engages nine degree awarding institutions (DAIs) and four major research centres, including four national supercomputing centres in Cyprus, Germany, Italy and Sweden, one non-degree higher-educational institution, five companies as associated partners, NVIDIA participating through its research labs at two supercomputing centres, and IBM to join as a future associate partner. AQTIVATE will deliver joint degrees between at least two DAIs.

The training program and the research projects of the fellows are designed to be interdisciplinary and they all include a placement in industry and/or supercomputing center, exposing the fellows to different training and work settings. By integrating interdisciplinary methodologies and engaging leading experts from different fields across Europe, AQTIVATE aims to deliver an innovative doctoral program that goes beyond what can be delivered by a standard university curriculum. This combination of formal and hands-on training, coupled with an exposure to different training environments, aspires to produce graduates with excellent career prospects both in academia and industry, and who will be ideally positioned to develop disruptive approaches in their respective scientific fields. AQTIVATE responds to the advancements and investments in supercomputing infrastructure and quantum computing systems and the need for developing new algorithms and software, delivering the much needed human capital that is essential to ensure Europe’s leadership in exploiting digital technologies for research and innovation.
