Projekt SesameNet
https://sesamenet.eu/the-project/
The vast increase of computational power in the last decades has created exciting opportunities. High-Performance Computing (HPC) has become an indispensable tool for industry and academia to innovate in such domains as computer aided engineering, simulations, renewable energy, financial services, satellite, earth observation, advanced image analysis, data science and precision agriculture. Recognized by the EU as a key element for the competitiveness of knowledge-based economies and a major factor in the development of innovative solutions also for small and medium sized enterprises (SMEs) the project SESAME Net was launched, funded by the EU Horizon 2020 programme.
Aim of the project is to create a same named open and inclusive European network of Competence Centres and Organizations joining forces in order to raise SMEs’ awareness on HPC and to demonstrate its features and benefits. The network on the one hand enables its members to share experiences, exchange best practices, learn from each other, identify similarities and differences in the circumstances faced in each of the regions, to gain from synergy effects and on the other hand builds a significant mean to strengthen the European middle class. By pooling expertise ranging from classical simulation through high performance data analytics to machine learning, offering consulting services and providing interested SMEs to acquire and build internal expertise SESAME Net aims to become an entry point to HPC for SMEs even for SMEs from countries that do not currently have such centres.
