The Distributed European Infrastructure for Supercomputing Applications (DEISA) is a European Union supercomputer project. It is made up of a consortium of eleven leading national supercomputing centres from seven European countries. It supports pan-European research by providing and operating a distributed supercomputing environment all over Europe and aims at delivering a turnkey operational solution for a future European high-performance computing system. By extending the European collaborative environment in the area of supercomputing, DEISA follows the suggestions of ESFRI.

Famous quotes containing the words distributed and/or european:
“Taking food alone tends to make one hard and coarse. Those accustomed to it must lead a Spartan life if they are not to go downhill. Hermits have observed, if for only this reason, a frugal diet. For it is only in company that eating is done justice; food must be divided and distributed if it is to be well received.”
—Walter Benjamin (1892–1940)
“We say that slavery has vanished from European civilization, but this is not true. Slavery still exists, but now it applies only to women and its name is prostitution.”
—Victor Hugo (1802–1885)
