State-of-the-art in computer supported numeric simulations
On August 12, Arcturs' CEO Mr.
Tomi Ilijaš, and head manager of
TIA - Slovenian Technology Agency, Mr.
Franc Gider, have signed a contract on
co-financing of development and investment project that Arctur will be conducting during next two years.
Arctur succesfully proposed a
2-milion-euro project to this years call for proposals, trough which TIA, on behalf of
Ministry of the economy, supports R&D oriented invetments. Arctur's project includes transfer of
latest scientific discoveries in applied mathematics to the field of ICT, and development of market-oriented application for
numeric simulations in composite materials industry. Development also involves research in the field of
hybrid paralelisation of computational processes. The project investment includes setting up of a
high performance computing infrastructure, necessary to develop, test, and run such a computationally demanding application.
The project will be performed by Arctur's own reasearch and development team. Part of R&D activities will be carried out as joint effort with Nova Gorica-based company
Spin, with
Institute of Mathematics, Physics and Mechanics of University of Ljubljana, and with
Josef Stefan Institute.
