NextSim partners, as fundamental European players in Aeronautics and Simulation, recognise that there is a need to increase the capabilities of current Computational Fluid Dynamics tools for aeronautical design by re-engineering them for extreme-scale parallel computing platforms. The backbone of NextSim is centred on the fact that, today, the capabilities of leading-edge...
Compute- and data-driven research encompasses a broad spectrum of disciplines and is the key to Europe s global success in various scientificand economic fields. The massive amount of data produced by such technologies demands novel methods to post-process, analyze, and to reveal valuable mechanisms. The development of artificial intelligence (AI) methods is rapidly...
Predicting novel materials with specific desirable properties is a major aim of ab initio computational materials science (aiCMS) and an urgent requirement of basic and applied materials science, engineering and industry. Such materials can have immense impact on the environment and on society, e.g. on energy, transport, IT, medical-device sectors and much more. Currently,...
The MareNostrum Experimental Exascale Platform (MEEP) is a flexible FPGA-based emulation platform that will explore hardware/software co-designs for Exascale Supercomputers and other hardware targets, based on European-developed IP. MEEP provides two very important functions:
- An evaluation platform of pre-silicon IP and ideas, at speed and scale and
- A...
Mixed-Criticality Cyber-Physical Systems (MCCPS) deployed in critical domains like automotive and railway are starting to use Over The AirSoftware Updates (OTASU) for functionality improvement, bug fixing, and solving security vulnerabilities (among others). But, OTASU entailsseveral difficulties:
1) Safety including non-functional properties like...
MASTECS will bring innovative and exploitable technology for multicore processor timing analysis (MTA) to the market. It will be used by critical embedded software industries (focusing on automotive and avionics) to support advanced software functions (such as autonomous driving), which are competitive factors in every new product.
MASTECS will enable...
Existing HW/SW platforms for safety-critical systems suffer from limited performance and/or from lack flexibility due to building on specific proprietary components, which jeopardize their wide deployment across domains. While some research attempts have been done to overcome some of these limitations, their degree of success has been low due to missing flexibility and...
The De-RISC project addresses computer systems within the space and aviation domains. De-RISC Dependable Real-time Infrastructure for Safety-critical Computer is a proposed project where an international consortium will introduce a hardware and software platform based aroundthe RISC-V ISA. The work proposed in this project is to productize a multi-core RISC-V system-on-chip...
L'agrupació en tecnologies emergents "Designing RISC-V-based Accelerators for next generation computers" (DRAC) disenyarà, verificarà, implementarà i fabricarà un processador de propòsit general d¿altes prestacions on s'incorporaran diferents acceleradors basats en la tecnologia RISC-V, i amb aplicacions específiques en...
High performance computing (HPC) has transformed scientific research across numerous disciplines by supportingtheory and experiments with numerical simulations. Exascale computing is the next milestone in HPC and is called to play an important role in economic competitiveness, societal challenges and science leadership. Combustion isone of the fields with high strategic...
