The interdisciplinary ESSEX consortium consists of five groups from the
University of Erlangen,
Computing Center Erlangen (RRZE),
Deutsches Zentrum für Luft- und Raumfahrt (DLR),
University Wuppertal,
University Greifswald.
Combining the experiences of computer scientists, mathematicians, and
physicists we address the fundamental and application specific challenges of high-performance computing at the exascale level.
Classic and new sparse iterative algorithms are employed
together with advanced quantum state encoding techniques.
The concepts, methods and software building blocks developed in our
project will serve as templates for many scientific
applications.
