The governing body of the cPPP is its Partnership Board (PB). It includes the European Commission and all the members of the Steering Board of ETP4HPC. Representatives of the European Centres of Excellence in Computing Applications are also invited to the PB meetings.
The Partnership Board is the formal communication channel between the European Commission (public side) and the ETP4HPC Association (private side) to discuss the Horizon 2020 HPC cPPP Work Programme, the implementation of the overall programme and policy related topics.
The ETP4HPC Association has established Working Groups and activities which, in particular are addressing contributions to the Horizon 2020 HPC cPPP Work Programme through a vision paper and a multiannual roadmap, and inputs to the Key Performance Indicators (KPI) as defined in Art. 7 of the Contractual Arrangement. A progress monitoring report is established yearly together by the Commission and the ETP4HPC Association.
The HPC cPPP is based on the Contractual Arrangement (CA) signed in December 2013, by European Commission (EC) Vice-President and European Commissioner for Digital Agenda, Neelie Kroes, on behalf of the public side, and the European Technology Platform for High-Performance Computing (ETP4HPC) Association representatives on behalf of the private side.
