AI4EOSC to offer an easier access to the European Open Science Cloud
The AI4EOSC Project, led by IFCA, will result in easier and simpler access for scientists to the European Open Science Cloud. “The idea behind the project is to exploit the already-existing computational resources at European level”, explains CSIC-IFCA’s Álvaro López, AI4EOSC Coordinator. The aim, he adds, is “providing a very simple access to users who don’t need to have advanced knowledge so that these resources are used in an efficient manner with the ultimate goal of creating an exchange place where these apps and models can be shared with other users and scientists”. This will ultimately increase the number of services in the EOSC and enhance collaboration among researchers. AI4EOSC, running until August 2025, will also offer more intuitive services for the European research community thanks to artificial intelligence, machine learning and deep learning. The project has been funded by the European Commission and has gathered 10 members from all…
The open-source platform OSCAR included in the EOSC portal
The Open-source Serverless Computing for Data-Processing Applications (OSCAR) (doi: 10.1109/CLOUD.2019.00073 ) has been included in the European Open Science Cloud (EOSC). The Grid and High Performance Computing Group (GRyCAP) at the Instituto de Instrumentación para Imagen Molecular (I3M) from the AI4EOSC consortium member Universitat Politècnica de València (UPV) developed OSCAR, a framework to efficiently support the Functions as a Services (FaaS) computing model for general-purpose file-processing applications. In AI4EOSC, the AI as a Service (AIaaS) developed will be based on the OSCAR platform, as it can be automatically deployed on multi-Clouds to create highly-parallel event-driven file-processing serverless container-based applications and execute them in response to inference requests.
