The ICEI (Interactive Computing E-Infrastructure for the Human Brain Project) project is funded by the European Commission under the Framework Partnership Agreement of the Human Brain Project (HBP). In the project five leading European Supercomputing Centres are working together to develop a set of e-infrastructure services that will be federated to form the Fenix Infrastructure.
