The aim of the special funding is to support the development of a diverse future computing ecosystem and the expansion of computing expertise into new sectors at both national and international level. The funding is designed to promote scientific renewal and diversity, the quality of research and scientific impact as well as impact beyond academia.
The funding granted under the present call will support international research collaboration that makes use of European cooperation in using EuroHPC’s high-performance computing resources, cooperation in using the LUMI supercomputer with partners in the US states of Texas and/or Colorado and/or researchers from the US National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) and/or research teams in Japan or the UK. The funding is not intended for coordination or planning of collaborations.
The European High Performance Computing Joint Undertaking (EuroHPC JU) is aimed at developing a world-class supercomputing ecosystem by pooling the resources of the European Union, European countries and private partners. Supercomputing is at the heart of the digital transformation in science, enabling deeper scientific understanding and breakthroughs in nearly every scientific field.
LUMI is a supercomputer project of the EuroHPC JU designed to improve research, employment and competitiveness in Finland and throughout Europe. LUMI provides not only supercomputing capacity but it is also one of the world’s leading platforms for artificial intelligence. Throughout its lifecycle, it will be one of the most visible scientific instruments in the world. Learn more about the LUMI supercomputer.
