在本文中，我们介绍了欧洲处理器计划（EPI）的概述，EuroHPC联合事业的基石之一，一个新的欧盟战略实体，专注于汇集欧盟和国家的HPC资源，以获取，构建和部署欧洲范围内世界上最强大的超级计算机。EPI于2018年12月开始活动。前三年吸引了来自10个欧盟国家的处理器和平台设计师、嵌入式软件、中间件、应用和使用专家，共同设计欧洲首个HPC片上系统和加速器，采用其独特的通用平台（CP）技术。EPI的核心活动之一也发生在汽车行业，为新型嵌入式高性能计算（eHPC）平台提供架构解决方案，并确保该计划的整体经济可行性。
In this paper, we present an overview of the European Processor Initiative (EPI), one of the cornerstones of the EuroHPC Joint Undertaking, a new European Union strategic entity focused on pooling the Union's and national resources on HPC to acquire, build and deploy the most powerful supercomputers in the world within Europe. EPI started its activities in December 2018. The first three years drew processor and platform designers, embedded software, middleware, applications and usage experts from 10 EU countries together to co-design Europe's first HPC Systems on Chip and accelerators with its unique Common Platform (CP) technology. One of EPI's core activities also takes place in the automotive sector, providing architectural solutions for a novel embedded high-performance computing (eHPC) platform and ensuring the overall economic viability of the initiative.
