Due to recent changes in travel restrictions and programme funding PRACE is planning to change fully virtual Summer of HPC 2022 into hybrid mode, where some PRACE hosting sites will provide on-site placement and mentoring face-to-face (F2F) for around 15 …
Summer of HPC is a PRACE programme that offers summer placements at HPC centres across Europe to late-stage undergraduate and master’s students. Up to 44 top applicants from across Europe will be selected to participate in pairs on 22 projects …
Project reference: 2222 Pharmaceutical intervention is always a compromise between unwanted side effects and anticipated interference with a pathological condition. A particular class of well tolerated drugs is formed by small peptides because their building blocks are simply the 20 …

Project reference: 2221 In recent years there has been a massive development in the high-performance computing architecture. More precisely, almost all the supercomputers are having the accelerators such as GPUs. On the other hand, there is a big question rising …
Project reference: 2219 CFD is solving time-dependent partial differential equations (PDE), and PDE is solved by numerical approximation, which brings the system of equations (matrices and vectors) that need to be solved either by direct or indirect solvers. These solvers …
Project reference: 2218 The main objective of this SoHPC project is to test how our existing code for energy consumption prediction scales from a local server to supercomputer. We have developed Python and R scripts to retrieve data, store it …
Parallel big data analysis within R for better electricity consumption prediction Read More »
Project reference: 2217 We propose to analize operational logs with machine learning methods. Starting from our previous work where we characterised the operational logs of our cluster computer LISA [1], we propose a continuation that would bring in scope additional …
Project reference: 2216 A reasonable part of the data analytics and statistical modelling community relies on some form of probabilistic programming language and software to implement particular solvers for models written in this language. This approach allows users to specify …

Project reference: 2214 Simulations of classical or quantum field theories often rely on a lattice discretized version of the underlying theory. For example, simulations of Lattice Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD, the theory of quarks and gluons) are used to study properties of …
Project reference: 2213 As the costs of electricity in Europe are rapidly growing, peaking more than 600 EUR per MWh in the end of 2021 and having a 200 EUR per MWh on regular basis, a stable and reliable as …
Project reference: 2212 Quantum computers are based on a completely different principle than classical computers. The aim of this project is to explain this difference. Thanks to this insight, potential students should then understand, for example, why quantum computers are …

Project reference: 2211 Space is a harsh environment; however, it is not totally void. In the solar system, space is filled with charged particles continuously expelled from the Sun corona. This flow is the so-called “solar wind”. Our goal is …
Project reference: 2210 Direct numerical simulations of turbulence flows are still challenging and need the performance of the fastest super-computers in the world. As the latter are nowadays of heterogeneous architecture, i.e. mixing CPUs and accelerators such as GPUs, algorithms updated. In this …
Project reference: 2209 The numerical simulation of wave propagation phenomena is of great interest in many areas of science and engineering, including seismic and acoustic applications. In this context, the use of time-domain solvers enables to significantly reduce the memory …
Project reference: 2208 Neural networks have shown remarkable performance in lots of domains to solve problems of high complexity. They can, in principle, be used to learn any type of model as they are universal approximators. Their use would be …

Project reference: 2207 Permafrost modeling is important for climate change impacts assessment both in cold areas (especially intensive warming occurring there) and globally (massive quantities of frozen organic C stored in the near surface permafrost). It has also numerous applications …
Project reference: 2206 The Julia language is one of the most modern and effective languages for performing high-performance numerical simulations, particularly in fluid mechanics. This project involves implementing a 2D Julia code simulating the transport of a scalar function with …
