GSS EU Science Funding Gateway

The EuroHPC JU Regulation gives a mandate to the EuroHPC JU to develop strategic research and innovation partnerships in HPC with third countries like Japan, that enables advancing the work on HPC applications in domains of common interest, including facilitating access for researchers to EuroHPC JU resources and co-development of HPC applications. 

Proposals should address all the identified priority domains, with activities in HPC applications such as co-development of applications in biomedical, material science, seismic/tsunami and/or weather and climate modelling, performance measuring, test and optimisation for different architectures; promoting the exchange of researchers and engineers between Japan and the EU, and elaborating a roadmap for future actions to enhance cooperation.

Proposals should clearly demonstrate a clear link with the existing European HPC Centres of Excellence supported in the identified priority domains. Proposals should describe the facilitation of reciprocal access for European and Japanese researchers to advanced Japanese and EuroHPC JU supercomputing resources (notably the utilisation of the “Fugaku” and EU/EuroHPC’s LUMI, Leonardo and MareNostrum 5 supercomputers), in conformity with the respective supercomputers’ access policy.

Japanese partners will not be funded by the EU and they are expected to participate in the project with their own funding.
