Several centers for supercomputing exist across Europe, and distributed access to them is coordinated by European initiatives to facilitate high-performance computing. One such initiative, the HPC Europa project, fits within the Distributed European Infrastructure for Supercomputing Applications (DEISA), which was formed in 2002 as a consortium of eleven supercomputing centers from seven European countries. Operating within the CORDIS framework, HPC Europa aims to provide access to supercomputers across Europe.〔''Grid middleware and services: challenges and solutions''. Domenico Talia (2008).

The supercomputer〔() Website of VSC〕 is part of an initiative by the Flemish government to provide the researchers in Flanders with a very powerful computing infrastructure. The new cluster is ranked 163rd in the worldwide Top500 list of supercomputers (edition November 2012). 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Supercomputing in Europe」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
