This book highlights the different aspects of the research project
“E4C Horizon 2020 European Project” aimed at fighting the
coronavirus by combining the best supercomputing resources and
artificial intelligence with state-of-the-art experimental
facilities up through clinical validation. Coronavirus disease has
become an important public issue across the globe since December
2019. There is an urgent need to develop potent anti-COVID-19
agents for the prevention of the outbreak and stop viral
infections. To this aim, a public–private consortium composed by
European and national infrastructures, center of excellence,
universities, and a pharmaceutical company started the E4C Horizon
2020 European Project: Its core idea was to use the EXaSCale smArt
pLatform Against paThogEns (EXSCALATE) supercomputing platform for
a process known as “drug repurposing”, namely to identify the
most promising safe in man drugs for immediate treatment of the
already infected population and then novel pan-coronavirus
inhibitors to address future emergencies. This ambitious goal
exploited a “chemical library” of 500 billion molecules, thanks
to a processing capacity of more than 3 million molecules per
second, made available by the computing power of the EXSCALATE
platform.
