PRACE 6th Implementation Phase Project

Description du projet

Contribuer à la transition vers PRACE 2

Le Partenariat pour le calcul avancé en Europe (PRACE) est un service paneuropéen permanent de calcul à haute performance (CHP) offrant des ressources et des services de calcul et de gestion de données de classe mondiale. PRACE conclut la transition vers PRACE 2. Le projet PRACE-6IP, financé par l’UE, s’appuiera sur les réalisations de PRACE et les poursuivra, en lançant de nouvelles activités innovantes et collaboratives pour contribuer au développement de PRACE 2, renforcer la marque PRACE, reconnue au niveau international, maintenir et développer la formation avancée, et préparer des stratégies et des meilleures pratiques en matière de calcul à l’échelle industrielle. Le projet travaillera sur les futures solutions logicielles, coordonnera et augmentera l’exploitation des systèmes et services de CHP à plusieurs niveaux, et aidera les utilisateurs à tirer parti des systèmes parallèles et des architectures innovantes.

Objectif

PRACE, the Partnership for Advanced Computing is the permanent pan-European High Performance Computing service providing world-class systems for world-class science. Systems at the highest performance level (Tier-0) are deployed by Germany, France, Italy, Spain and Switzerland, providing researchers with more than 17 billion core hours of compute time. HPC experts from 25 member states enabled users from academia and industry to ascertain leadership and remain competitive in the Global Race. Currently PRACE is finalizing the transition to PRACE 2, the successor of the initial five year period. The objectives of PRACE-6IP are to build on and seamlessly continue the successes of PRACE and start new innovative and collaborative activities proposed by the consortium. These include: assisting the development of PRACE 2; strengthening the internationally recognised PRACE brand; continuing and extend advanced training which so far provided more than 36 400 person·training days; preparing strategies and best practices towards Exascale computing, work on forward-looking SW solutions; coordinating and enhancing the operation of the multi-tier HPC systems and services; and supporting users to exploit massively parallel systems and novel architectures. A high level Service Catalogue is provided. The proven project structure will be used to achieve each of the objectives in 7 dedicated work packages. The activities are designed to increase Europe's research and innovation potential especially through: seamless and efficient Tier-0 services and a pan-European HPC ecosystem including national capabilities; promoting take-up by industry and new communities and special offers to SMEs; assistance to PRACE 2 development; proposing strategies for deployment of leadership systems; collaborating with the ETP4HPC, CoEs and other European and international organisations on future architectures, training, application support and policies. This will be monitored through a set of KPIs.
