Accelerators are the basic building blocks of the next-generation exascale systems. In this context, The European PILOT project will be the first demonstration of two European High Performance Computing (HPC) and High Performance Data Analytics (HPDA) accelerators – all designed, implemented, manufactured and owned by Europe.
Using open-source software and open and proprietary hardware, the project will deliver the first 100 % European full stack software, accelerator and integrated ecosystem based on RISC-V accelerators coupled to any general-purpose processor (CPU). The accelerators will be manufactured in the new European GlobalFoundries 12 nm advanced silicon technology, a major demonstration of European technology independence.
