2 ETP4HPC What is an ETP? Why an ETP for HPC? Who are the founders? The members? Organisation of ETP4HPC SRA and other productions PPP & Ecosystem Why become a member? Next steps

3 What is an ETP?

4 An ETP is an industry led forum – ETPs provide a framework for stakeholders, led by industry, to define research priorities and action plans on a number of technological areas where achieving EU growth, competitiveness and sustainability requires major research and technological advances in the medium to long term – The Commission is committed to a structured dialogue on research priorities with ETPs 38 ETPs – 10 in ICT : embedded software, microelectronics, photonics, satellite, communication networks, media, software and services, robotics, smart systems integration… and HPC Production of ETPs – Vision Papers – Strategic Research Agendas

6 High-Performance Computing (HPC) refers to any form of computing where the density of processing or the size of the problems addressed require more than a standard or commodity computing system in order to achieve the expected result under the given constraints, and the application of advanced techniques such as the use of multiple processors (tens, hundreds, thousands or even more) connected together by some kind of network to achieve a performance well above that of a single processor. Two traditional HPC categories are distinguished: – Capability computing refers to the use of a large and high-performing computing infrastructure to solve a single, highly complex problem in the shortest possible time. Systems used for this purpose are called supercomputers and consist of many tightly coupled compute nodes with distributed memory, all controlled by a single unit. – Capacity computing refers to optimising the efficiency of using a compute system to solve as many mid-sized or smaller problems as possible at the same time at the lowest possible cost. However, HPC is an open field with evolutions that are able to deliver the computing power needed in areas such as Cloud Computing and Big Data. HPC continuously targets the most complex and most demanding computing tasks within the reach of emerging technologies. HPC ?

7 Why an ETP on HPC ? A strong European technology ecosystem is mandatory to achieve the full potential of HPC in Europe Development of a sustainable European HPC industry Representation of the European HPC industrial stakeholders Expected results : – Competitive HPC solutions designed in Europe. – An economically sustainable HPC sector. – Better ability to use HPC and make it a competitive advantage for European research and industry. – Reduced reliance upon technology from other regions that are investing heavily in their HPC technology development. – Competitiveness of existing industrial sector and development of new activities. – Indirect benefits for the rest of ICT industry (extreme-edge trickle-down effects)

8 An answer to EC HPC policy vision February 2012… … May 2013

9 ETP4HPC objectives To build a European world-class HPC technology value chain that will be globally competitive To achieve a critical mass of convergent resources in order to increase the competitiveness of European HPC vendors and solutions To leverage the transformative power of HPC in order to boost European competitiveness in science and business Contribute to a vibrant and vivid ecosystem Giampietro

19 What are the main findings of the Vision Paper ? (Spring of 2012) Recommendations : – to launch a research program with the aim to develop European technology in all the segments of the HPC solutions value chain – to focus this program on specific technical domains and on some operational priorities Operations : – Building on existing strengths. – Analyzing disruptions that can change the current HPC landscape and facilitate introduction of new technologies developed in Europe. – Selecting technologies with a market potential large enough for a sustainable development. – Using synergies with other IT market technologies. – Choosing technologies fitting the needs of important applications. – Creating a favorable environment for SMEs (creation of start-ups and development of existing SMEs).

20 Importance and impact of HPC 3 axes : – Development of HPC technology – Existence of world-class HPC e-infrastructure – Development of HPC application and use 3 key success factors – Coordination – Education and training – Focus on SMEs PPP could leverage all the stakeholder actions Budget for HPC technology development of 150 M€ Europe achieving leadership in HPC
