Simulation and Big Data : technological challenges and diversity of uses

Plenary sessions provided a substantial panorama of User needs from all industrial sectors, as well as current state-of-the-art from Suppliers and Research.

In introduction, Christian Saguez, President of Teratec recalled the challenges that all economic sectors will have to face in order to achieve their digital transition in terms of HPC, Big Data and HPDA, as well as every effort made by Teratec helping SMEs and midcaps to take this particular step. He also announced the setting-up of one Competence center in quantum computing on the Teratec Campus in Bruyères-le-Châtel (Essonne), paired with a collaboration agreement with Genopole to launch one significant program dedicated to personalized medicine (next press announcement to be released).

François Bouchet, Director General of Ecole Polytechnique (X), recalled the importance of HPC in the curriculum of X students and in fundamental research activities conducted hereto. Isabelle Ryl, Director General (Industrial Transfers and Partnerships) and Bruno Raffin, Research Director at INRIA, recalled own initiatives and actions taken in such specific fields as Digital Simulation, HPC and Cloud. Eric Van Hensbergen, Senior Director of HPC at ARM, explained how he develops processors and architectures tailored to HPC needs. With a highly appreciated presentation, Nicolas Vayatis, Director of the CMLA of the ENS Paris-Saclay stressed the role of Human Intelligence as a key driver to expand Artificial Intelligence. Finally, Cédric Villani, Fields Medal 2010, Member of French Parliament for Essonne, First Vice-President of OPECST (Office parlementaire d'évaluation des choix scientifiques et technologiques) and coordinator of the parliamentary report ''Donner un sens à l'intelligence artificielle'', closed the morning sessions. Before starting interactive questions and answers with the audience, he particularly insisted on the fact that science, and specifically AI, can no longer develop today without increasing the considerable computation quantity.

In the afternoon, Rémi Bastien, Renault's VP Prospective Automotive, explained the major challenges facing all players within the Mobility market and how HPC can help them. Eric Papin, technical Director of Naval Group, added a similar contribution for shipbuilding, insisting on the ''Digital Twin'' approach for both ships at sea as well as means of production. Jean-Philippe Nominé, from the CEA's Strategic Analysis Department, gave an overview of HPC developments in Europe, resulting in the very first European digital program (Digital Europe) endowed with 10 billion Euros over the 2021/2027 period. Denis Caromel, President and founder of ActiveEon, showed how HPC linked to hybrid Cloud can handle very large volumes of data in a very flexible way. On his side, Eric Selosse, VP and General Manager of the Emulation division of Mentor (Siemens Group) showed how specialized supercomputers can validate software and hardware as emulators, even before producing the slightest silicon wafer.
