Section: Partnerships and Cooperations

JLESC (former JLPC) (Joint Laboratory for Extreme-Scale Computing) with University of University of Illinois Urbana Champaign, Argonne Nat. Lab and BSC. Several members of POLARIS are partners of this laboratory, and have done several visits to Urbana-Champaign or NCSA.

POLARIS has strong connections with both UFRGS (Porto Alegre, Brazil) and USP (Sao Paulo, Brazil). The creation of the LICIA common laboratory (see next section) has made this collaboration even tighter.
POLARIS has strong bounds with the University of Illinois Urbana Champaign and Barcelona Supercompter Center, within the (Joint Laboratory on Petascale Computing, see previous section).

LICIA Bresil: Polaris is member of the common laboratory with Bresil. The founding director of LICIA is Jean-Marc Vincent.

LICIA: The CNRS, Inria, the Universities of Grenoble, Grenoble INP, and Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul have created the LICIA (Laboratoire International de Calcul intensif et d'Informatique Ambiante). LICIA's main research themes are high performance computing, language processing, information representation, interfaces and visualization as well as distributed systems. Jean-Marc Vincent is the director of the laboratory on the French side and visited Porto Alegre for two weeks in November 2016.

ECOS-Sud: POLARIS is a member of the Franco-Chilean collaboration network LEARN with CONICYT (the Chilean national research agency), formed under the ECOS-Sud framework. The main research themes of this network is the application of continuous optimization and game-theoretic learning methods to traffic routing and congestion control in data networks. Panayotis Mertikopoulos was an invited researcher at the University of Chile in October 2016.
