Big data is nowadays being integrated in systems requiring to process a vast amount of information from (geographically) distributed data sources, while fulfilling the non-functional properties (real-time, energy-efficiency, communication quality andsecurity) inherited from the domain in which analytics are applied. Examples include smart cities or smart manufacturingdomains....

Energy and Mobility are two primary driving forces in the 21st century. Development of incremental and disruptive technologies will have keyimpacts on the world s societies, and on safety, security and competitiveness of Europe. Amongst those technologies, gas turbines will play amajor role. Recovery of shale gas depends decisively on compressors. Modern gas supplied power...

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...

The EUBrazilCC project was a first step towards providing a user-centric, cross-Atlantic test bench for European & Brazilian research communities. EUBrazilCC was centred in practical scientific use cases, and it is built on a close collaboration among European & Brazilian excellence centres.

EUBrazilCC exploited & coordinated, through a 2...

The proposed HiPEAC network of excellence was a follow-up of an existing network that wanted:

1. to steer and to increase the European research in computing systems
2. to improve the quality of the European computing systems research
3. to create a visible and integrated pan-European community in computing systems.

The network was...

The grand challenge of Exascale computing, a critical pillar for global scientific progress, requires co-designed architectures, system software and applications. Massive worldwide collaboration of leading centres, already underway, is crucial to achieve pragmatic, effective solutions. Existing funding programs do not support this complex multidisciplinary effort. Severo...

Due to technology limitations, the domain of high-performance processors is experiencing a radical shift towards parallelism through on-chip multi-cores and chip customization leading to heterogeneous multi-core systems.

Furthermore, the commodity market, the supercomputing market and the embedded market are increasingly sharing the same challenges,...
