Joint Laboratory for Extreme Scale Computing (JLESC)

The Joint Laboratory brings together researchers from Inria (France), NCSA (USA), ANL (USA), BSC (Spain), RIKEN (Japan), UTK (USA), and JSC. The objectives are to initiate and facilitate international collaborations on state-of-the-art research related to computational and data-focused simulation and analytics at extreme scales.

JuWinHPC: Jülich Women in HPC

Why are there not more women working in HPC? What started with this simple question resulted in the powerful international initiative “Women in High Performance Computing". The members of this network are working for more equality, diversity and inclusion in the HPC community. A team of local WHPC members has established a local WHPC Chapter at Forschungszentrum Jülich, the Jülich Network of Women in HPC (JuWinHPC). The group's goal is to strengthen the local community of women involved in HPC.

Dynaverse: Cluster of Excellence Initiative

Dynaverse is a new Cluster of Excellence initiative between the Universities of Cologne and Bonn, the Forschungszentrum Jülich, the Max Planck Institute for Radio Astronomy, the German Aerospace Center and the Heidelberg Institute for Theoretical Studies. It is a world-class hub of expertise in radio astronomy, lab-experiments, simulations, and machine learning / artificial intelligence.

Der Geoverbund ABC/J ist das führende geowissenschaftliche Netzwerk der Forschungsregion Aachen-Bonn-Köln-Jülich. Als Zusammenschluss von 34 renommierten geowissenschaftlichen Instituten der RWTH Aachen, der Universität Bonn, der Universität zu Köln und des Forschungszentrums Jülich treibt er geowissenschaftliche Spitzenforschung voran.

Accelerated Data Analytics and Computing Institute (ADAC)

The Accelerated Data Analytics and Computing Institute has been established to explore collaboration among participating providers of public HPC infrastructure across the world. Consistent with their respective missions, the participants seek to collaborate and leverage their respective investments in application software readiness in order to expand the breadth of applications capable of running on accelerated architectures.

PRACE

The Partnership for Advanced Computing in Europe (PRACE) was founded in 2004 to provide world-class computing resources to European researchers, thus becoming the first e Infrastructure on the ESFRI Roadmap. Through its collaboration with 25 member countries over the last two decades, PRACE has played a key role in the European High-Performance Computing (HPC) ecosystem by advancing scientific discovery and engineering research.

FENIX

The Federated European Network for Interaction and eXchange (FENIX) Research Infrastructure is a bottom-up initiative with 6 leading HPC Centers namely BSC (Spain), CEA (France), CINECA (Italy), CSC (Finland), CSCS (Switzerland) and JSC (Germany), that 2018 agreed to align their services to facilitate the creation of the FENIX Infrastructure.
