The Research Data Alliance (RDA) is rapidly building the social and technical bridges that enable open sharing and re-use of data on a global level. RDA/Europe - the European plug-in to the global Research Data Alliance activities will ensure that European research, industrial, einfrastructure and policy stakeholders are all aware of its achievements, engaged with and...

Climate change is expected to impact extreme weather in Europe. There is therefore a clear need to adapt effectively to climate change, particularly in Europe, where recent heatwaves, floods and droughts have demonstrated the vulnerability of European citizens to extreme weather. However, scientifically robust information about the extent to which recent extreme weather can...

Theoretical Chemistry and Computational Modelling (TCCM) is emerging as a powerful tool to helpin the rational design of new products and materials for pharmaceutical, chemical, energy, computerand new-materials industries. To achieve this goal, it is necessary to go beyond the traditional electronic structure studies, and merge complementary techniques that are normally not...

ACTRIS-2 addresses the scope of integrating state-of-the-art European ground-based stations for the long term observation of aerosols, clouds and short lived gases by capitalizing on the work of FP7-ACTRIS. ACTRIS-2 aims to achieve the construction of auser-oriented RI, unique in the EU-RI landscape. ACTRIS-2 provides 4-D integrated high-quality data from near-surface to high...

High-fidelity flow simulation is one of the main goals to pursue in the research towards exascale computing. This capability will allow a cheaper exploration of aeronautical and automotive designs that fulfill energy consumption and noise emissions policies of the European agencies. In this project, the integration of three high-performance tools will be studied as a...

PRACE, the Partnership for Advanced Computing, was established in May 2010 as a permanent pan-European High Performance Computing service providing world-class systems for world-class science. Six systems at the highest performance level (Tier-0) are deployed by Germany, France, Italy and Spain providing researchers with over 9 billion core hours of compute...

SAFURE targets the design of cyber-physical systems by implementing a methodology that ensures safety and security "by construction". This methodology is enabled by a framework developed to extend system capabilities so as to control the concurrent effects of security threats on the system behaviour. The current approach for security on safety-critical embedded systems is...

GrowSmarter aims to:

• Improve the quality of life for European citizens by better mobility, housing and the quality of urban infrastructure while improving the citizens economy by lower energy costs and creating as much as 1500 new jobs (on the demonstration level).
• Reduce the environmental impact by lower energy needs by 60 % and increased use of...

La industria de la energía eólica tiene todavía la preocupación de que muchos proyectos muestran discrepancias entrelos valores calculados y reales en producción y condiciones de operación. El nuevo Atlas Eólico Europeo está dirigidoa reducir estas variaciones y está estructurado en torno a tres áreas de...

Computer simulations are taking over in design processes. Nevertheless, complex projects will largely benefit from human intuition and team-work. We combined computer and human power into the next generation of fully interactive computational tools for drug design.

The goal of eDRUG was to prove the potential of this novel computational solution in the...
