4 Three pillars of the strategy Infrastructure Capacity of acquiring worldclass computers Technologies Securing our own independent HPC system supply Applications Excellence in HPC applications, and widen HPC use Build a thriving European HPC Ecosystem (infrastructure, hardware, software, applications, skills, services )

5 European HPC Strategy Our ambition is for Europe to become one of the top 3 world leaders in HPC by 2020 French-German Conference on Digital; Paris, 27 October /2016: European Cloud Initiative COM(2016) 178 a world-class HPC, data & network infrastructure and a leading HPC and Big Data ecosystem 05/2017: Mid-Term Review of the Digital Single Market Strategy COM(2017) 228 by end-2017, propose a legal instrument providing a procurement framework for an exascale supercomputing & data infrastructure European Commission President Jean-Claude Juncker 6

9 European Processor Initiative 23 partners 10 countries Multidisciplinary Cross-market Industry + academia BMW Group Develop low-power processor technology to be included in HPC systems and this contribute to building a technology supply Europe by 2023 and beyond Ensure that the application areas of the technology are not limited only to HPC, but cover other areas, thus ensuring the economic viability of the initiative.

10 The implementation

11 Issues at stake EU has no top ranked supercomputers and depends on non-eu technology Increasing funding Gap vis-a-vis USA, JP, CN Weak EU supply chain Weak integration of EU technology in HPC machines Insufficient coordination of national investments Advanced Skills/ Expertise required HPC strategy implementati on by MS is inefficient 12
