PRACE : an EU-Project and a European initiative (MoU)

• 2007 April, 16: Memorandum of U d t di i d b 15Understanding signed by 15 European member states in Berlin

2008 EU P j t <2008 2009>• 2008: EU-Project <2008-2009> France, Germany, Spain, The Netherlands and UK reconfirmed their commitment for establishing a European HPC Research Infra- Januarstructure

• 2009: 4 new European member pstates have joined the PRACE initiative and more are interested

PRACE : Why ?PRACE : Why ?• Supercomputers The tool for solving most challenging

problems through simulationsproblems through simulations

• Access to capability computers of leadership class : essential for international competiveness in science and engineering High challengesp g g

• Providing competitive HPC services : a continuous endeavor

• Acknowledged by leading

High challenges

industrial nations such as USA and Japan since the 1990ies and more recently 990 es a d o e ece t yby Russia and China

• And in Europe ?

PRACE is the European answerPRACE is the European answer• Conviction that use of numerical simulation is strategic for

competitiveness both of science and industrycompetitiveness both of science and industry

• Obligation to act at the European level : European countries cannot compete orld ide indi id allcannot compete worldwide individually

• Necessity to create a specific legal entity, non profit i ti t th b t ti l ffi i (korganisation, to ensure the best operational efficiency (key

words : mutualisation, complementarity, consistency, transparency)transparency)

• Will to provide a European HPC service by start of 2010
