Flying the simulation center Pau (CSP), a trio of shock: the urban community, a subsidiary of Turbomeca Safran, and the specialist simulation CS.
Under the arches of the Palais Beaumont, facing the Pyrenees, the inauguration of the PUC on Feb. 4 led the conjunction of several tribes: a world of high technology that is familiar in the wake of the Atomic Energy Commission, aviation industry and defense, for which simulation tools are commonplace, and the subcontractors of a region of the workshops higher or lower value, and a local enthusiast.
All three partners in the initiative the center is benefiting. Communication Systems Company, from the merger of the Company of signals and computer subsidiary of CEA, CISI, is the center operator and principal investor of departure. This regional base allows him to "create business" by providing small and large businesses a machine and software to load, and an accompanying measure for its simulation services, said Jacques Duysens, CTO modeling, simulation and calculation at CS. The turbine manufacturer Turbomeca helicopter, large payer in the region, benefits by means of a high competence center nearby. The urban community, finally, which finances the center in thirds, is go upmarket local industry and it sustains employment. It is also where the means to leverage its network of high speed, for which she has spent much of its budget (30 million euros over 5 years). Especially that eventually, the center of Pau may be connected to very large computers in the Paris region. A large pipe fiber optic links still underused in fact directly Pau Defense near Paris, where the ECA has invested in a very powerful unit (CCGT).
