The European Processor Initiative held a codesign workshop on September 10 and 11, in Heraklion, Greece.

This two-day workshop brought together leading researchers and industry experts to explore the future of high-performance computing in Europe. Key topics included performance analysis with EPAC, next-generation chip architectures (Arm, RISC-V), chiplet technologies, and reliability challenges. The program featured keynotes on energy-efficient computing and exascale systems, alongside project experiences from projects closely collaborating with EPI (including EUPEX, EUPILOT, and DARE).

At HiPEAC25, EPI colleagues from BSC had two presentations:

Pablo Vizcaino: RAVE: RISC-V Analyzer of Vector Executions, a QEMU tracing plugin

Marta Garcia-Gasulla: Co-design, from a buzzword to a reality, an EPI success story
