CaSToRC, the HPC National Competence Centre,
 invites you to the EuroCC-2 Seminar Series

Abstract

About the Speaker

Ioannis Emiris is the Director of the ATHENA research center in Greece, and a Professor of Informatics & Telecommunications at the National and Kapodistrian University of Athens. He has been a Tenured Researcher at INRIA Sophia-Antipolis from 1995 to 2002, and is an external collaborator since then (Geometric Modeling group). For the past three years he served as member of the scientific board of Hellenic Foundation of Research and Innovation, representing Informatics and Mathematics.

His interests span Scientific Computing, Computational Geometry, Robotics, Bioinformatics, and Machine Learning, with emphasis on polynomial system solving, high-dimensional geometric computing, computer-aided design, robot and molecular kinematics, similarity search, and deep geometric learning. He has founded and leads the Lab of Geometric and Algebraic Algorithms, which has enjoyed funding through several European, bilateral, national, and industrial projects; he has coordinated a number of them, including three H2020 MSCA networks, of which an ITN on Learning, Processing and Optimizing shapes (GRAPES) is currently on-going.

 
About the EuroCC-2 project

EuroCC 2 will work to identify and address the skills gaps in the European High Performance Computing (HPC) ecosystem and coordinate cooperation across Europe to ensure a consistent skills base.

The role of EuroCC 2 is to establish and run a network of more than 30 NCCs across the EuroHPC Participating States. The NCCs act as single points of access in each country between stakeholders and national and EuroHPC systems. They operate on a regional and national level to liaise with local communities, in particular SMEs, map HPC competencies and facilitate access to European HPC resources for users from the private and public sector.

EuroCC 2 delivers training, interacts with industry, develops competence mapping and communication materials and activities, and supports the adoption of HPC services in other related fields, such as quantum computing, artificial intelligence (AI), high performance data analytics (HPDA) to expand the HPC user base.

This project has received funding from the European High-Performance Computing Joint Undertaking (JU) under grant agreement No 101101903. The JU receives support from the European Union’s programme Digital Europe and Germany, Bulgaria, Austria, Croatia, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, Greece, Hungary, Ireland, Italy, Lithuania, Latvia, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, France, Netherlands, Belgium, Luxembourg , Slovakia, Norway, Switzerland, Turkey, the Republic of North Macedonia, Iceland, Montenegro and Serbia.
