The JUPITER AI Factory (JAIF) with its exascale supercomputing capabilities offers unique opportunities for training AI models in Europe. Through collaboration with the NVIDIA Inception programme for startups, JAIF is now expanding its infrastructure and range of services.
Forschungszentrum Jülich and Siegen-based start-up eleQtron have officially inaugurated the quantum computer JION. Developed in North Rhine-Westphalia (NRW), JION will be made available to research institutions and industry through the JUNIQ user infrastructure, enabling hybrid computations with Jülich’s supercomputers. NRW Minister-President Hendrik Wüst and NRW Science Minister Ina Brandes hailed JION as a technological milestone.
Forschungszentrum Jülich (FZJ) is part of the newly established Unit NRW of ELLIS, the European Laboratory for Learning and Intelligent Systems. ELLIS is regarded as one of Europe’s leading networks for research in machine learning and artificial intelligence. The new unit brings together leading AI researchers and large-scale computing infrastructure across North Rhine-Westphalia to develop open-source foundation models and datasets and advance trustworthy AI applications for scientific and industrial use.
An international team of physicists has achieved unprecedented accuracy in computing the magnetic properties of the muon using several supercomputers including Europe’s first exascale machine JUPITER. The result, published in Nature, resolves long-standing uncertainty between theory and experiment.
ARQUE Systems, a spin-off from Forschungszentrum Jülich and RWTH Aachen University, aims to bring about a breakthrough in quantum computing with a scalable architecture. A key advantage: the processor is based on conventional semiconductor technology. The first system is currently being set up in Jülich.
Ericsson and Forschungszentrum Jülich aim to push the boundaries of network performance and efficiency, ensuring future solutions use as little energy as possible, while delivering exceptional intelligence and performance.
JUPITER was unveiled to the public today at Forschungszentrum Jülich in front of high-ranking guests from politics, science, and industry. The German Chancellor Friedrich Merz and the Minister-President of North Rhine-Westphalia Hendrik Wüst attended the inauguration ceremony of Europe’s fastest and most energy-efficient supercomputer.
Jülich researchers are combining quantum computers with supercomputers. Such hybrid systems are intended to unite the advantages of both worlds and crack previously unsolvable scientific puzzles.
