These projects are pursuing innovative approaches that integrate cutting-edge technologies, including +Artificial Intelligence (AI), Internet of Things (IoT), High-Performance Computing (HPC) and Edge/Fog/Cloud Computing. + +Under the 2022 Horizon Europe call for Digital and Space, topic “World Leading Data and Computing Technologies”, the EU +recognises the intrinsic value of data for EU’s competitiveness. Projects funded under the +cluster [HORIZON-CL4-2022-DATA-01-05 – Extreme data mining, aggregation and analytics technologies and solutions](https://cordis.europa.eu/programme/id/HORIZON_HORIZON-CL4-2022-DATA-01-05/en) +seek to securely extract meaningful insights from raw data, facilitating advanced decision-making strategies. + +## Methodology and Novelty + +Through unique methodologies and application cases, each of the seven projects contribute to strengthening European +capacities for agile responses to urgent needs by developing and enabling the uptake of the next generation of computing +and data technologies and infrastructures. Operating within the framework of European values, the projects emphasise +human-centred and ethical development of digital and industrial technologies, promoting trustworthy technology that +empowers end-users. + +The projects leverage innovative infrastructures, converging and working seamlessly across the compute continuum. With +diverse application cases, ranging from crisis management, mobility, to food security, the projects aim to bring their +innovative work closer to end-users, making it a reality for them. + +## The Cluster Objectives + +The cluster is dedicated to fostering a vibrant community within the seven projects. By creating a space for exchange, +knowledge-sharing and network-sharing the cluster aims to create a synergetic ecosystem. This collaborative effort +maximises the impact of the projects by enhancing communication networks and facilitating exchange, with partners from +across Europe, showcasing the effectiveness of Horizon Europe and laying the foundation for future collaborations. + +## DataNexus in Summary + +The seven projects in the DataNexus cluster are: + +[Graph-Massivizer:](https://graph-massivizer.eu/) Extreme and Sustainable Graph Processing for Urgent Societal +Challenges in Europe. + +Use Cases: Massive graph representation of extreme data in: + +* Data Center Digital Twin for Sustainable Exascale Computing +* Green AI for Sustainable Automotive Industry +* Global Foresight for Environment Protection +* Green and Sustainable Finance + +[NEARDATA:](https://neardata.eu/) Extreme Near-Data Processing Platform. + +Use Cases: A near-data platform for consumption, mining and processing of data in: + +* Genomics +* Metabolics +* Surgery + +[EXA4MIND:](https://exa4mind.eu/) EX4MIND platform for extreme data enables advanced data analytics on supercomputers +and automated data +management with support for integration by design with European data ecosystems. + +Use Cases: + +* Systematic improvement of molecular simulations and accuracy +* Massively automated annotation and evaluation of automotive camera recordings +* Smart farming/viticulture with sensors and satellite imagery +* Secure data mining in health data + +[EXTRACT:](https://extract-project.eu/) A distributed data-mining software platform for extreme data across the compute +continuum. + +Use Cases: + +* Personalized evacuation route system (mobile app) +* Transient astrophysics for analyzing space weather + +[SYCLOPS:](https://www.syclops.org/) Scaling extreme analytics with cross-architecture acceleration based on open +standards, and advancing AI/data +mining by democratizing its acceleration through open standards. + +[EFRA:](https://efraproject.eu/) Extreme Food Risk Analytics. + +Use Cases: + +* Risk predictions for poultry pathogens +* Enhanced predictive capabilities for pest alarms +* Informing regulatory decisions with food risk intelligence + +[EMERALDS:](https://emeralds-horizon.eu/) Extreme-scale Urban Mobility Data Analytics as a Service.
