RDA Europe 4.0 addresses the INFRASUPP-02-2017 call targeting the area European support to the Research DataAlliance, RDA designing Europe s contribution to implementation of an effective governance model and strategy in RDAglobal, while ensuring that RDA delivers on locally relevant issues. RDA Europe 4.0 focuses on the need for open andinteroperable sharing of research data...
Heterogeneous Memory Systems; Profiling; Runtime Systems; Programming Models Supercomputers are a key tool for professionals from many disciplines to address society challenges, enabling them to perform, e.g., climate change simulations or genome analysis. EC's HPC Strategy, implemented in H2020, devises the need to bring Europe's high-performance computing technology to the...
Les Tecnologies Quàntiques (QT, de l'anglès Quantum Technologies) fan ús de les excepcionals propietats de la Física Quàntica amb la finalitat de prestar capacitats sense precedents en l'actual Societat de la Informació. Les tecnologies de Computació Quàntica, Comunicació Quàntica, Simulació...
The recent COP21 Paris agreement on climate ties the participating countries (Spain and the whole EU among them) to take actions to reduce anthropogenic carbon emissions in order to contain global warming within 2o C by the end of this century. This translates into the necessity to precisely estimate the compatible CO2 emissions well ahead of time to make sure targets are met. However,...
Our first objective is to improve the understanding of key processes that control the variability of the ice-ocean- atmosphere system at decadal time scale. The focus will be on the interactions between the components at regional scale and on the links with larger spatial scales. A specific attention will be paid to the surface mass balance of ice sheets and ice shelves, as...

Five leading European supercomputing centres are committed to developing a set of services, within their respective national programs and service portfolios, that will be federated across a consortium. The work will be undertaken by the following supercomputing centres that form the High Performance Analytics and Computing (HPAC) Platform of the Human BrainProject...
Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is an highly disabling airways pathology, with a high prevalence and a significanteconomic and social cost. It is caused by a complex variety of interactions between genes and the environment that give rise to severalclinical phenotypes. New therapeutic targets have recently been found, giving hope for improving the living...
Liquid fuel combustion applications are the main energy consumers within our current transport system, with a consequent impact on resource utilization, global warming and pollutant emissions. Society is pushing to decarbonize the transportation sector with replacementfuels that have lower impact and allow to a carbon-neutral growth for the near term. The implementation of...
INB, the Spanish National Bioinformatics Institute, was created in 2003 following the Swiss Bioinformatics Institute (SIB) model of a distributed organization of nodes with a central coordination hub. Since 2015, the INB is the Spanish node of ELIXIR (European Life Science Infrastructure for Biological Information). Since January 2018, the INB is the bioinformatics technology...
