Mont-Blanc, European scalable and power efficient HPC platform based on low-power embedded technology (Mont-Blanc)

Start date: Oct 1, 2011, End date: Jun 30, 2015,

There is a continued need for higher compute performance: scientific grand challenges, engineering, geophysics, bioinformatics, etc. However, energy is increasingly becoming one of the most expensive resources and the dominant cost item for running a large supercomputing facility. In fact the total energy cost of a few years of operation can almost equal the cost of the hardware infrastructure. En ...

TRAINING SCHEMES ON NUCLEAR SAFETY CULTURE (TRASNUSAFE)

Start date: Nov 1, 2010, End date: Oct 31, 2014,

Nuclear Safety Culture is a topic of paramount importance for all nuclear operators as well as for all operators of installations dedicated to radiology and radiotherapy. It concerns also the regulators and related support organisations. Its efficient practice is an absolute must for nuclear power plants, for production and transport of fissile materials and radioisotopes, and for related research ...

Small debris removal by laser illumination and complementary technologie (CLEANSPACE)

Start date: Jun 1, 2011, End date: May 31, 2014,

"This proposal aims to answer the FP7 Security research call SPA-2010-2.3.02 and the need to protect space assets from orbit collision. The number of debris in Low Earth Orbit is exponentially increasing with, in the short term, potential inter debris collisions. For medium size debris (between 1 cm and several dozens of cm) no effective and affordable protecting solution is available. This projec ...

Novel MS-based strategies to Discover and Evaluate Cancer Biomarkers in urine: Application to Diagnosis of Bladder Cancer (DECanBio)

Start date: Mar 1, 2008, End date: Jul 31, 2012,

In clinical studies, proteomics and transcriptomics allow the comparison of samples from different patients and hold special promise for the discovery of novel biomarkers and the development of “personalized medicine” approaches. Yet, translating recent discoveries into daily medical practice takes time and despite intensified researchers’ interest and investments, the rate of introduction of nove ...

Nano Packaging Technology for Interconnect and Heat Dissipation (NANOPACK)

Start date: Nov 1, 2007, End date: Sep 30, 2011,

One of the major limitations to continued performance increases in the semiconductor and power electronics industries is integration density and thermal management. Continued transistor downscaling is quickly reaching its limits forcing a new focus on heterogeneous integration and 3D packaging technologies to continue performance improvements by reducing interconnect length between memory and mult ...

A Correct-by-Construction Workbench for Design and Verification of Embedded Systems (COCONUT)

Start date: Jan 1, 2008, End date: Jun 30, 2010,

Design and verification of modern embedded platforms are two highly related problems which are still mainly addressed by using unrelated methodologies. This effectively reduces development productivity and complicates achieving predictable system properties.The COCONUT project thus focuses on the definition of a formal framework based on a tight integration of design and verification through all r ...
