MIHPS is a Master of Science devoted to the training of top scientists able to acquire two major technological developments:
the systematic use of parallelism (from multicore computers to supercomputers)
the use of numerical simulation industry and research. A major feature of this master is to give future graduates a multidisciplinary skill, an expertise of high performance computing and parallel computing and an expertise of modelling / simulation techniques.
High Performance Simulation is both an essential factor in corporate competitiveness and an absolutely vital tool for major scientific challenges. Thus it enables experts to design products more rapidly which are better suited to customers’ requirements and furthermore to analyse and understand complex phenomena.
Promoting High Performance Simulation is, therefore, a priority both for the industrial world as well as for the academic community and provides also an opportunity for IT specialized companies.
With this objective in mind major players in these different fields have created the Ter@tec association together with local authorities keen to develop technological activities in their territory.
MULTIPLE COLLABORATIONS
TERATEC brings together different actors of the High Performance Simulation. In a place unique in France, it promotes exchanges and collaborations around the larger computing resources in Europe. Created at the initiative of CEA-DAM Ile de France, TERATEC offers its partners research and most advanced technologies in the field of numerical simulation.
AirCity- 3D simulation of air quality in the city with 3m resolution The purpose of the project is to develop a revolutionary simulation system to represent and predict air pollution at any point in a very large city, with resolution to the order of a few meters, all over the city.
Collaviz -Open platform for scientific visualization and remote collaborative work 32 months after the project started, and in compliance with the commitments set down in its proposal, the industrialized version of the Collaviz platform and the generic visualization client are now available. These two keystones of the project are perfectly suited to the needs of many end users of the Consortium, who are currently finalizing the developments of their industrial demonstrators.
Cool IT - Energy optimization of Data Centers In the ninth month of the project, the functional and technical specifications for hardware and software to collect energy data have been established, and the first models of energy use and optimization have been made.
CSDL - Designing a collaborative decision-aid tool to design complex systems
Demo use cases are now in place. These demos illustrate the complex chains that have to be implemented to carry out a multi-disciplinary analysis of complex systems. The purpose of these numerical simulations is to design a system through using mathematical techniques such as optimization or sensitivity analysis.
H4H - Optimise HPC Applications on Heterogeneous Architectures
The purpose of this project is to provide a hybrid parallel programming environment to optimally combine use of different parallel programming models and therefore to use heterogeneous platforms as efficiently as possible.
OMD2 - ODistributed Multi-disciplinary Optimization The OMD2 project aims to scale-up numerical design methods to enable generalized (on the system level) and more ambitious industrial integration (robustness, multi-disciplinarity) of optimization.
OPUS - Open Platform to Process Uncertainties for Simulation
In the ninth month of the project, the functional and technical specifications for hardware and software to collect energy data have been established, and the first models of energy use and optimization have been made.
PARMA - Parallel Programming for Multi-core Architectures
The ITEA ParMA project brought together European computer specialists to enable the development of an integrated set of programming methods required to harness the power of the latest multicore processor architectures essential for European research and industrial production
