ProgrammesEurope's second high-end exascale supercomputer has found its home: it will be hosted by the Très Grand Centre de Calcul of the French Alternative Energies and Atomic Energy Commission in Bruyères-le-Châtel (France) and operated by the "Jules Verne" consortium. It will be accessible to European researchers and industry as of 2025.
This supercomputer represents a joint investment shared between France, the Netherlands, and the EU of around €540 million. The EU will contribute 50% of the total costs from the DIGITAL Europe Programme.
Thanks to its massive computing capacity, it will help solve societal challenges in several areas, such as energy (e.g. support fusion energy development), health (e.g. fast analysis of genomic data for virus mutations, rapid disease detection), and management of climate change (e.g. providing high-resolution weather forecast models). It will also advance our capabilities in quantum computing simulation.

If you’ve never heard of Limecraft, you’re clearly not working in the media sector. Their SaaS platform provides integrated workflows for media management, scripted and unscripted TV, and subtitling and localisation. It is used by leading broadcasting companies – such as BBC, VRT, NPO… – and production firms of which De Mensen or Hotel Hungaria might ring a bell (at least if you are Belgian).
NCP Flanders went to Ghent to interview Maarten Verwaest, CEO and cofounder, about how he sees Horizon 2020. Limecraft is a partner in the MeMAD project, which is a collaborative RIA project submitted to an ICT call topic.
