Scalable Parallel Astrophysical Codes for Exascale
About us
In astrophysics and cosmology (A&C), HPC (high performance computing)-based numerical simulations are invaluable instruments to support scientific discovery. Given the complexities of the problems, they represent essential tools for modelling, interpreting, and understanding the physical processes behind the observed sky. Advances in computational power promise a wealth of groundbreaking, new scientific discoveries by making ever greater numerical simulations feasible provided that equally advanced tools are created to exploit these computational resources. For a field like astrophysics, which is generally unsuited to laboratory experiments, the significance of this development cannot be overestimated. Future exascale computing systems are expected to have extremely complex, heterogeneous architectures. The currently used numerical simulation codes are not suitable for use on these systems since they were not purposedly designed for them and therefore cannot effectively take advantage of the superior processing capabilities promised. SPACE’s main goal, therefore, is to enable current astrophysical and cosmological codes to be used on the pre-exascale HPC architectures funded by the EuroHPC JU and made available at the end of 2022, as well as on future architectures by re-designing or adapting the existing computational tools for this next-generation hardware. It will bring together scientists, community code developers, HPC experts, hardware manufacturers, and software developers in co-design activities to re-engineer eight of the most widely used European A&C HPC codes into new products that can efficiently exploit future computing architectures.

We recently participated in the General Assembly of SPACE Centre of Excellence, which was held at the Max Planck Institute for Astrophysics in Munich. On that occasion, the project partners discussed of the main developments achieved over 2023 and set out the upcoming goals and challenges. The General Assembly preceded the webinar “Plasma Physics towards the Exascale Era”, during which SPACE codes were discussed by a very specialized audience of experts in the field, organized at HiPEAC Conference on January 19th. SPACE “Scalable Parallel Astrophysical Codes for Exascale” aims to enable 8 of the most widely used European HPC codes in the Astrophysics and Cosmology sector. Our role is collecting feedback from code developers of space codes and working on better performance and scalability of the them. #E4ComputerEngineering #EuroHPC #EUproject #Astrophysics

As part of the workshop "PLASMA PHYSICS TOWARDS THE EXASCALE ERA" held at HiPEAC, we had the honour of hosting as a speaker Nitin Shukla, HPC Scientific Application Engineer in CINECA, who presented a valuable contribution entitled "Using OpenACC to Harness the Full Potential of Multiple GPUs in ECsim". The collaboration between CINECA and E4 started in 2017 with the co-design activities of the D.A.V.I.D.E. supercomputer, which was followed in 2022 by the take-over of the supervision and technical support of the Leonardo supercomputer, and continued in 2023 with the implementation of ICE4HPC, an interactive computing environment for HPC clusters, developed by E4 Analytics. CINECA and E4 share a profound harmony of views on both technical and evolution of the Italian and European HPC ecosystem. In fact, both are focused on technological excellence, achieved through a dense interchange of experiences, technologies and evaluations. CINECA researchers and E4's technical staff contribute to outlining the technological developments that will define the products and solutions that E4 will bring to the market, and it is an honour for us to be able to support this research activity with our application solutions that can help them operate with maximum effectiveness. #e4computerengineering #cineca #SuccessStories
