VEGA - Virtual Prototyping of Electrical Parts with Geometry based Analysis

The main object of VEGA is the seamless integration of CAD and numerical simulation in order to achieve a significant reduction in the cost of virtual prototyping. To this end, the incompatibilities of these two constituents have to be overcome. This requires an amplification of existing CAD descriptions as much as a profound modification of the simulation methods. More details here.

PRACE/SHAPE - SME HPC Adoption Program in Europe

SHAPE is a pan-European programme run by PRACE that helps SMEs to adopt High-Performance Computing (HPC). The programme aims to raise awareness and equip European SMEs with the expertise necessary to take advantage of the innovation possibilities opened up by HPC, thus increasing their competitiveness. Within this SHAPE project, TAILSIT gets help from HPC experts as well as access to the supercomputer VSC-4. The team will incorporate distributed-memory parallelism and implement optimized communication strategies with the Message Passing Interface (MPI). More details on this project can be found here.
