Using sub-sea cables as scientific instruments for collecting environmental and other data is an interesting new trend

In Finland, a new type of supercomputer merges conventional supercomputing with quantum computing. An application could be calculating in near-real-time how a tsunami will develop.

A European initiative for open science allows archaeologists to map the journeys of Vikings based on artifacts found in different countries.

The technology reveals evidence for human heavy metal exposure, as well as preservation status of bone, dental tissue, and hair at micrometre scales.

Thanks to an EU open science program, the climate researchers in each Nordic country do not need to create their models of the Nordic climate system from scratch.

Numerous universities were able to take advantage of the free cloud services offered by URAN, but the increased demand led to an unforeseen crisis caused by disk storage overload in the NREN’s data centre.

Through a combination of new theory and raw computing power, at team at King’s College London is able to support development of superconducting materials. NRENs provide the necessary data transfer.

Raúl Zurita Milla from the University of Twente conducts pioneering green wave studies with big data, thanks to the Netherlands eScience Centre Center, which was founded ten years ago.

Researchers participate in CERN’s experimental and theoretical physics, accelerator and detector technology, as well as in a variety of other projects in these areas.

Using cloud services provided by GRENA, the library is making scientific works and research profiles visible, accessible and reusable for the entire European scientific community.

Through extensive use of High-Performance Computing, a team at the National Research Council, Italy, challenges the established theory of turbulence.

An initiative called RENaaS– Education and Research Network as a Service – offers all the functionalities of a virtual network as a service, and helps developing countries implement or even expand their academic networks at low cost.
