Imagine your company's software is like a car that uses too much fuel and drives too slowly. This project acts like a professional tuning shop for the world's most powerful computers. They analyze the code to find where it's lagging and show developers exactly how to make it run faster and leaner.
Companies using supercomputers often waste money and energy because their software is not optimized for the hardware. This leads to longer wait times for results and higher operational costs.
Open-source performance analysis tools and a service-based auditing methodology for large-scale HPC applications.
If you are a design firm dealing with slow simulation times for new wing shapes — this project developed performance auditing tools that identify bottlenecks. This allows you to reach solutions faster while reducing the energy cost of your supercomputer runs.
If you are a biotech company dealing with massive datasets for molecular modeling — this project developed a methodology to optimize code for EuroHPC systems. This ensures your research scales efficiently across thousands of processors without wasting computing credits.
If you are a forecasting agency dealing with energy-heavy weather models — this project developed energy efficiency advisory studies. This helps you refactor your code to lower the electricity consumption of your large-scale executions.
Based on available project data, specific pricing is not listed, but the project provides services to SMEs and prescribers to promote efficient resource usage.
Yes, POP3 specifically focuses on large-scale executions and the scalability of European flagship codes on EuroHPC platforms.
The performance analysis tools developed by POP3 remain open source.
The tools are adapted to fully support EuroHPC platforms, ensuring they can handle analysis at the scale required by flagship applications.
Based on available project data, the project runs from 2024-01-01 to 2026-12-31, providing ongoing performance assessments and advisory studies.
The consortium consists of 8 partners across 5 countries (CZ, DE, ES, FR, PT). It is heavily weighted toward research and academia, with 4 universities and 3 research organizations, and 0 industry partners or SMEs. This indicates the project is driven by high-level technical expertise from the Barcelona Supercomputing Center and similar institutions rather than commercial product development.
