The laboratory supports the Group's process of digital transformation, immediately integrating the latest technological advances in digitisation into its production chain. By exploring technologies that go beyond the current state of the art, the laboratory serves as a key player in the broader process of defining and guiding the future requirements of technology, as well as in identifying roadmaps for the development of High-Performance Computing and cloud and edge computing. Leonardo's digital transformation revolves around davinci-1, the new hybrid supercomputing infrastructure whose computing power and storage capacity can be used both as a traditional bare metal HPC centre and as a cloud platform. One of the Lab’s key goals is supporting and accelerating the process of digitisation by transferring, optimising, and modernising traditional engineering workflows on davinci-1, thus enabling new features for digital twinning, advanced simulation, artificial intelligence, big data analysis and other areas of interest, even while increasing their performance and energy efficiency.
