EU-China Workshop on HPC Cloud and Big Data

Awarded: NOK 49,999

The Cloud Computing is becoming increasingly popular for high-performance computing. It is now capable of running many of the applications that previously required building out a large HPC cluster or renting time from a supercomputing center. However, som e scientific applications still require special architectures available only in supercomputers. Therefore, it becomes necessary to bridge the gap between HPC and Cloud Computing by bring Cloud's elasticity and easy resource allocation to old fashioned sup ercomputer centers. One of scenarios that could particularly benefit from such development is the scientific analysis of Big Data. These creates various challenges concerning: security, privacy, processing algorithms, infrastructure management, etc. Inte rdisciplinary effort is required to meet these challenges. This workshop aims to create a forum where leading researchers and industry representatives from EU and China meet to discuss these challenges and plan further actions that should result in colla boration on national and international level.
