Supercomputing Spotlights is a webinar series featuring short 
presentations that highlight the impact and successes of 
high-performance computing (HPC) throughout our world. Presentations, 
emphasizing achievements and opportunities in HPC, are intended for the 
broad international community, especially students and newcomers to the 
field. Supercomputing Spotlights is an outreach initiative of 
SIAG/Supercomputing (https://urldefense.us/v3/__https://siag-sc.org__;!!G_uCfscf7eWS!e7KoM5biy6QcZ9wOAX1KB5GhiW6NXTxk_NbJAg3SZEDJIWu7jd1UaJ4xL7EZ1DIEWWYkobqTXxgZy4Vwt2l6skjEzX2soMo$ ) …  Join us!

Abstract: With JUPITER, the first European exascale supercomputer will 
enter production soon. The system, achieving exascale through about 24 
000 Grace-Hopper CPU/GPU superchips, is the result of a long process, in 
which scientific applications took a prominent role during the design. 
The talk will present the JUPITER system design, the current status, and 
how a set of applications within the JUPITER Benchmark Suite were used 
to procure the machine. In addition, first experiences from JUREAP, the 
JUPITER Research and Early Access Program, will be presented.

Bio: Andreas Herten is a researcher at Jülich Supercomputing Centre and 
the joint-head of the Novel System Architecture Design division, in 
which he investigates next-generation supercomputer architecture. He and 
his team especially focus on accelerators (through the Accelerating 
Devices Lab), like GPUs. Central to his work is the close incorporation 
of application feedback to assess the hardware-software interaction 
systematically. Andreas is involved in a variety of European and 
national research and innovation projects. He plays a leading role in 
design and deployment of the JUPITER supercomputer, the first exascale 
system in Europe and hosted in Jülich.
