Capable of a billion calculations per second, exascale computing still needs to overcome technology gaps that limit performance and energy efficiency. There is a need to increase computation ability and enable the seamless integration of reconfigurable accelerators in heterogeneous high-performance computing (HPC) multi-node platforms.

The EU-funded TEXTAROSSA project aims to tackle these gaps by applying a co-design approach to design and develop an efficient supercomputer system based on new hardware accelerators, innovative two-phase cooling equipment, advanced algorithms, methods and software products for traditional HPC domains as well as for emerging domains in high performance artificial intelligence and high performance data analytics.
