Consortium
The EESI project consortium has been designed to represent a cross-section of European and international key actors in the field of HPC. The partnership has a deep and broad expertise in all the technological and strategic aspects related to HPC.
The consortium is composed of:
- 2 contractual partners: TOTAL & PRACE
- 29 organizations which act as chairs and vice chairs of Work Packages and tasks
- Around 100 experts who contribute through the project tasks and working groups.
The mission of the PRACE Research Infrastructure (RI) is to enable high impact European scientific discovery and engineering research and development across all disciplines to enhance European competitiveness for the benefit of society. The PRACE RI seeks to realize this mission through the provision of access to world class high performance computing, data management, resources and services open to all European researchers through a peer review process. Through the broad participation of European governments and their representative organizations, a diversity of resources can be provided by the PRACE RI, including expertise throughout Europe in effectively usage of the available resources. PRACE has an extensive pan-European education and training effort devoted to help users as well as preparing the next generation of scientists and engineers.
The PRACE RI is established as an international non-profit association with seat in Brussels and is named ‘Partnership for Advanced Computing in Europe AISBL’. It has 21 member countries whose representative organizations are creating a pan-European supercomputing infrastructure, delivering world-class services to the European research community with large-scale computing and storage resource, support and training needs.
