      abstract     = {In a longstanding tradition, the John von Neumann Institute
                      for Computing (NIC) holds biennial symposia, accompanied by
                      proceedings volumes – illustrating the broad range of
                      modern computational science and the advances in high
                      performance and data-intensive computing. Symposium and
                      proceedings thus provide a glimpse into supercomputingbased
                      research at its best and make it accessible both to the
                      general public and to computational scientists across
                      disciplinary boundaries. As such they foster exchange
                      between different fields of natural science and engineering
                      with respect to modern algorithms and computational
                      strategies. To this end, on March 6th and 7th, 2025,
                      computational scientists will again convene in Jülich for
                      the 12th NIC symposium. We are very pleased that this time
                      it is again possible to showcase the breadth of
                      high-performance computing research supported by the NIC
                      with contributions from astrophysics, elementary particle
                      physics, and statistical physics of hard and soft condensed
                      matter, computational chemistry and materials science, as
                      well as computer science, fluid mechanics, and earth system
                      modelling – covering both fundamental research and
                      projects with a strong application orientation. We are also
                      delighted to extend a very warm welcome to our colleagues
                      from the Goethe University Frankfurt who have joined the NIC
                      in 2024 as a new member institution. Together, we will
                      further strengthen research in the field of computational
                      science in Germany and Europe. The NIC continuously provides
                      the scientific community with essential high-performance
                      computing resources and training. Within the framework of
                      the Gauss Centre for Supercomputing (GCS), the Jülich
                      Supercomputing Centre (JSC) has been operating the modular
                      supercomputer JUWELS (Jülich Wizard for European Leadership
                      Science) since 2020, which is composed of a CPU-based
                      cluster and a GPU-based booster module. Thanks to the
                      excellent training and user support by the technical experts
                      from the JSC, the JUWELS architecture has been widely
                      adopted across disciplines and communities. In particular,
                      porting codes to the booster module and adapting algorithms
                      to the GPU architecture has been fundamental in getting the
                      disciplines ready for the next generation of GPU-based
                      exascale computing. After the decision by the European High
                      Performance Computing Joint Undertaking (EuroHPC JU) that
                      the Forschungszentrum Jülich is to operate the first
                      exascale supercomputer in Europe, the JSC and the GCS have
                      been preparing for JUPITER (Joint Undertaking Pioneer for
                      Innovative and Transformative Exascale Research). The new
                      system will become available in 2025. To optimally prepare
                      applications and users for JUPITER and to facilitate the
                      transition from current petascale and pre-exascale
                      supercomputers to actual exascale computing, the JSC has
                      launched JUREAP, the JUPITER Research and Early Access
                      Program. In the first phase of 2024, users have participated
                      in the Scalability and Performance Evaluation Phase (SPEP),
                      an open call to test and demonstrate the performance and the
                      scaling of the applications on test architectures. In
                      September 2024, the GCS Exascale Pioneer Call has been
                      initiated with two objectives: the successful projects are
                      given early access to JUPITER during build-up, approximately
                      from January 2025 onwards, and the call distributes JUPITER
                      resources for the time period after the machine is
                      officially operational until the end of October 2025 –
                      thus enabling groundbreaking computational research for the
                      German scientific community. A more detailed overview on
                      JUPITER, the new opportunities that exascale computing opens
                      up to all scientific communities, and in particular the
                      shifts driven by the wave of developments in AI technologies
                      and large foundation models are provided in the introductory
