Objectives

The main goals of EESI are to build a European vision and roadmap to address the international outstanding challenge of performing scientific computing on the new generation of computers which will provide hundreds of Petaflop performances in 2015 and Exaflop performances in 2020.
 
The main objective of the EESI Final International Conference is presenting the project results to the stakeholders, scientists and policy makers containing presentations and discussions with all experts participating to the WG activities. Beyond the EESI vision and roadmap, the presentation will include societal impact of using Exascale computing, cost for using exascale computing, and cost for the society not using Exascale computing.

The first technical meeting of EESI 2 has brought together about 40 experts in the areas of software development, numerical analysis, applications knowledge, funding models and governance aspects in High Performance Computing, coming from several European countries, Saudi Arabia and USA from academia and industry.

The Internal workshop was aimed for each working group (WG) to present their results and roadmaps and, generally speaking, to address cross cutting issues between the different fields.
The aim of the meeting was also to elaborate a first set of concrete recommendations for the future of HPC in Europe.

The main results of the internal workshop are:

  • A very good attendance of all work packages chairs and vice chairs as well as experts from all working groups;
  • A presentation of the results of the working groups showing a good overall progress in the definition of the roadmap;
  • A set of two fruitful parallel sessions between the members of the working groups. The outcome of these sessions will feed the deliverables and guide final thoughts on EESI 2;
  • A schedule and process to achieve the oncoming deliverables;

Fruitful discussions with the representative from the European Commission
