EuroHPC Summit Week 2019
Poznan
The EuroHPC Summit Week 2019 gathered together the main HPC stakeholders in Europe. The EuroHPC Summit Week, endorsed by the EuroHPC Joint Undertaking, is organised by PRACE, EXDCI-2 and ETP4HPC.
PRACEdays19 was part of the EuroHPC Summit Week 2019. Similar to previous years, this edition offered a wide variety of workshops covering a number of application areas where supercomputers are key, as well as HPC technologies and infrastructures.
The EuroHPC Summit Week 2019 provided a great opportunity to network with all relevant European HPC stakeholders, from technology suppliers and HPC infrastructures to scientific and industrial HPC users in Europe. EuroHPC Summit Week 2019 was hosted by PRACE’s Polish Member PSNC – Poznań Supercomputing and Networking Center, and welcomed over 360 participants.

GÉANT: Why NRENs are essential for a successful EuroHPC 30m
Abstract: The EC has defined three pillars for HPC: Next generation technologies, access for industry and academia and HPC application delivery and use. All three require a high end network, reliable security services and a trustworthy identity and access management infrastructure. The European National Research and Education Networks (NRENs) and GEANT have together built a network and set of services to meet the demands of HPC. And they will further develop this to meet the future demands of the EuroHPC programme delivering a quality and targeted set of services that distinguishes NRENs from commercial Internet providers.

Equality and Diversity in HPC Room A (Andersia Hotel)
Room A
Andersia Hotel
PRACEdays19 will host a session dedicated to an open discussion on Equality and Diversity in HPC.
The presence and contribution of women, and other generally underrepresented groups, is increasing in many scientific domains including HPC, but numbers show that still there is gap to be bridged. Some attempts are being made to increase inclusivity, but the road to hell is paved with good intentions. Procedures put in place in good faith to support the inclusion of underrepresented groups may actually be perceived as undermining competence, and actually backfire.
Which are present, and sometimes unconscious, barriers for under represented groups in science and in particular in computational research? Have you encountered inclusivity barriers in your career and how did you overcome them? What can be done to reduce those barriers? Which are the best practices from your organisation?
This session is meant to raise awareness and inspire participants to start working with these topics. We would like to hear from you what you experienced, what you tried, what worked, what didn’t work, and what you are thinking of trying and would like to hear others’ opinions on. Outcome of the session will be summarised in an article to be widely disseminated.

The co-design with applications is a critical activity in the development of the exascale technology. The European Processor Initiative (EPI) is leading the European effort to develop a competitive solution for the next generation of computing, providing the key components for building Exascale supercomputers based on European hardware and software technologies. This session will bring together the application communities with clear needs for exascale performance and the EPI players to discuss about how to collaborate in the co-design effort in view of the integration of the European technologies in pilots. The final goal will be to ensure that the new European technologies are fully exploited and meet the needs of users and applications addressing grand scientific and societal challenges. This session targets the European technology and application developers (including Centres of Excellence)

The two pillars of scientific experiments and theories have been the seed for our understanding of the world for centuries. The appearance of computers and their implementation in efficient numerical techniques provoked the expansion of simulations as a new way to understand, guide and design new experiments, models, materials and processes that could better support the technical and economic development of our societies. Simulations now embrace all the areas of science and humanities and have been the main use of supercomputers world-wide. The large amounts of data generated by simulations together with those derived from instruments now call for a different era: the use of data science and statistical learning has impacted our daily lives almost without us noticing and will impact the way we use supercomputing.
The new exascale computers will need to answer the societal new needs for efficiency, sustainable growth, and security, and have to address crucial problems like energy supply, health, and active aging. The combination of simulations and data will certainly change the way scientific and industrial computing is performed in Europe and the rest of the world. This will challenge our capacities to educate the next generation, develop newer and efficient algorithms and promote the smooth technology transfer.Convener: Serge Bogaerts (PRACE) -

HPC Ecosystem Workshop: How will legacy code survive the next generation of systems? Room E (Andersia Hotel)
Room E
Andersia Hotel
Legacy codes capitalize decades of research. While they constitute an important accumulated effort and value, their maintenance and transition to new HPC systems are frequently no concerns of funding agencies. This session aims at bringing the focus on evaluating the investments needed to preserve the legacy code capital and the necessary supporting technologies. This session is organized in two parts. The first will be dedicated to a few short presentations to set the scene. The second part will be devoted to a general discussion with the audience. A restitution of the debate will be provided to the participants.
