The DARE project has officially launched, marking a significant milestone in Europe's pursuit of technological autonomy in high-performance computing and artificial intelligence. Coordinated by the Barcelona Supercomputing Center and supported by EuroHPC and the Spanish Ministry of Science, this initiative unites 38 leading European partners to develop advanced supercomputing technologies. With a budget of 240 million, DARE aims to reduce Europe's reliance on foreign computing technologies over the next three years.
DARE will create three new European-designed computing chips, including a Vector Accelerator, an AI Processing Unit, and General-Purpose Processors. These innovations are expected to enhance capabilities in scientific simulations, AI applications, and high-performance computing tasks. The project represents a strategic move towards ensuring Europe’s digital sovereignty and fostering innovation in both hardware and software technologies.
