SPAIN: EU SUPERCOMPUTER PROJECT IN BARCELONA IN 2012
(ANSAmed) - MADRID, MARCH 23 - In 2012 Barcelona will host one of the supercomputers of the Prace project, one of the 44 major high performance IT infrastructures that in the future will be located in Europe. The news was confirmed today by minister of Science and Innovation Cristina Garmendia while inaugurating the European Conference on Research Infrastructures (Ecri 2010) that is being held today and tomorrow in Barcelona, in the context of the Spanish presidency of the EU. Quoted by the EP press agency, Garmendia explained that the Prace project is a permanent processor system with four main nuclei (aside from the Spanish one, another three are planned in Italy, Germany and France) that will be activated in time and that in the near future will allow Europe to always have at least one supercomputer that is competitive at world level. The Barcelona Prace that will be set up in the National super-processor centre (BSC-CNS) will come into operation after the German one in Julich, which will be inaugurated in coming months; the French one in Gif-sur-Yvette and the Italian one in Bologna. The Spanish government will allocate an investment worth 100 million euros to the project, 60 of which for the super computer in Barcelona, that will be 100 times more powerful than its brother named MareNostrum, to date the largest in Europe, which was installed in the BSC-CNS centre in 2004.

Nooit meer fascisme, niet vanuit een ideologie en niet vanuit een religie!
De vraag is niet of er een recht is op het hebben van een mening, maar of het veilig is om een mening te hebben.
