An open architecture to equip next generation HPC applications with exascale capabilities

Project description

A new chapter in high-performance computing-powered applications

High-performance computing (HPC) is at the core of major advances in the massively connected digital economy. Thanks to exascale computing – the capability to perform quintillion operations per second – networking and computing will drive societal and scientific advances. The EU-funded REGALE project will pave the way for next-generation HPC applications to exascale systems. Bringing together key stakeholders, academics, top European supercomputing centres and end users from various sectors, the project will define an open architecture. It will also build a prototype system that can equip supercomputing systems with the mechanisms and policies for effective resource utilisation. REGALE will assist in maintaining Europe’s leading position in the use of HPC-powered applications.

Objective

With exascale systems almost outside our door, we need now to turn our attention on how to make the most out of these large investments towards societal prosperity and economic growth. REGALE aspires to pave the way of next-generation HPC applications to exascale systems. To accomplish this we define an open architecture, build a prototype system and incorporate in this system appropriate sophistication in order to equip supercomputing systems with the mechanisms and policies for effective resource utilization and execution of complex applications.

REGALE brings together leading supercomputing stakeholders, prestigeous academics, top European supercomputing centers and end users from five critical target sectors, covering the entire value chain in system software and applications for extreme scale technologies.
