"Europe needs to develop an entire domestic exascale stack from the processor all the way to the system and application software", Mateo Valero, Director of Barcelona Supercomputing Center.

In a  guest blog post on Commissioner Günther Oettinger's website Mateo Valero stresses the need for Europe to join the race towards Exascale supercomputing. According to him, there is an open window of opportunity for the High Performance Computing (HPC) development that would stimulate scientific breakthroughs and have tremendous impact on society and industry.

Europe has the competence and skills to engage in the global competition towards Exascale Supercomputing. To fully benefit from the opportunities of the digital single market, Europe must strengthen the fundamental research on which digital transformation is based and build a stronger European High Performance Computing (HPC) ecosystem.
