Access to high-value services
Access to new knowledge enabled through PRACE
• Big science may be usable by industry in advance on leading edge HPC systems
• PRACE as a catalyzer of technological transfer
Evangelization and Training
• Specific programme for SMEs HPC evangelisation (SHAPE)
• Specific courses targeting industrial users are programmed in the 6 PRACE Training Centers
• The online training portal is accessible by everyone
Code enabling
• The implementation projects work at developing Open Source codes for industry
Computational Fluid Dynamics : OpenFoam - Uncertainties analysis : URANIE, …
• Real industrial test cases are used in the process
• All the reports and white papers from PRACE are public !
Information, Promotion and Networking
• PRACE Days Conferences
Last edition in Barcelona (May’17) with close to 300 attendees
Good mix of large companies and SMEs, from various industrial domains

26 June 2018HPC for SME, a not so simple plan !
▶ SMEs are the backbone of the European Economy
▶ 99/100 businesses are SMEs
▶ In 2015, just under 23 million SMEs generated €3.9 trillion in value added and
employed 90 million people (source: EC SME Performance Review 2015/2016)
▶ Most of the SMEs are not aware of « what is HPC and what for » or think ”It’s not for me !”
▶ Lack of trained resources/skills in HPC and simulation
▶ Lack of knowledge of the ecosystem and tech transfer from academia
▶ Who can help me and what tools/methodologies …
▶ SME are not talking the HPC and the Cloud jargon
▶ Access to rough cycles is NOT the solution
▶ HPC : a strategic decision for a SME
▶ Need of training, new HR, new investments, …
✓ SME need to have a clear view and a ROI demonstration

26 June 2018SHAPE
A pan-European, PRACE-based, programme
supporting HPC (and HPDA/AI) adoption by SME
Raise awareness of SMEs of using HPC increased competitiveness
Relying when existing on national HPC evangelisation prg. (UK, FR, DE, IT,…)
Support SMEs up to a proof-of-concept with an integrated set of services
Training on PRACE PATC centers
Co-development of concrete industrial project with HPC and domain-specific experts
Demonstration using PRACE HPC resources (Open R&D model)
After the SHAPE demonstration, companies will have a clear view
potential of HPC on their processes/business
investments to perform and skills to hire
software or methodologies to develop
next HPC Services to use : PRACE services for Open R&D, buying their own HPC facilities, remote
access to HPC services on commercial Cloud platforms.
