The push for European innovation and autonomy in computational infrastructure and chip design has led to many fruitful projects working to achieve this goal. Crucial among these is the EU Processor Initiative (EPI) that is working on the design and development of the first EU processor.
AERO aims to complement the efforts of the EPI project by developing the open-source software ecosystem required to not only improve the efficiency of the EPI hardware but also accelerate and ease the processor’s integration into the cloud. AERO will enhance the performance, energy and security efficiency and facilitate and motivate user migration to the future European cloud platform, infrastructure and ecosystem.
