PEPR NumPEx : High-Performance Computing and European Sovereignty
Article originally published on the CNRS website here
The Digital Exploratory Exascale Priority Research Program (PEPR), led by CEA, CNRS, and Inria, aims to develop software for future exascale supercomputers, crucial for scientists and industries to leverage these powerful machines.
With a budget of €40.8 million over eight years, PEPR is part of the Exascale France Project and the EuroHPC initiative, which seeks to create a leading supercomputer ecosystem in Europe. In an interview, Michel Daydé, former co-director of the program, explains that PEPR focuses on adapting algorithms and developing new ones to meet the architectural demands of exascale computing, addressing energy consumption challenges, and creating a robust French software stack. This effort will significantly impact fields like climate science, medicine, and industrial applications, bolstering European scientific and industrial competitiveness.
49th ORAP Forum : The PEPR Numpex “Digital for Exascale”
29 novembre 2022, Maison de la simulation
The Digital PEPR for Exascale (NUMPEX) aims to design and develop the software components that will equip future exascale machines and prepare the major application areas to fully exploit the capabilities of these machines.
Major fields of application that relate to both scientific research and the industrial sector.
