PRACE completes phase I of Pre-Commercial Procurement
PRACE started this PCP to obtain R&D services which should result in future PRACE HPC systems to become more energy efficient. Phase I of PCP was completed on 9 March 2015. During Phase I, Bull, E4, Maxeler and Megware explored the various possible solutions. These have now been invited to bid for Phase II during which prototypes for the three most promising solutions will be built.
