Hannover Messe 2026 once again demonstrated that industrial transformation remains one of the central priorities for Europe’s industrial landscape. Across the exhibition halls, it became clear that topics such as artificial intelligence, simulation, digital twins, data-driven processes, automation, and energy-efficient industrial solutions are no longer future visions alone, but are increasingly becoming part of industrial reality. EXCELLERAT participated with a shared booth for the first time.

The Mobile World Congress (MWC26) took place from 2–5 March in Barcelona, Spain, and represents the global meeting point for digital innovation, advanced connectivity and AI-driven transformation. This year, EXCELLERAT partner Arctur represented the EXCELLERAT P2 project at the fair, placing the EXCELLERAT Service Portal at the centre of its presentation.

Understanding an unfamiliar codebase is a recurring challenge in scientific computing. In a blog article, CERFACS introduces WalkingPrompt: a workflow for code explanation assisted by language models that systematically traverses a repository, links dependencies, and generates structured summaries across modules and directories. By keeping the human developer in control, WalkingPrompt reduces repetitive effort, produces more consistent explanations, and creates a coherent first layer of documentation for large scientific codes, while addressing key concerns such as trust, privacy, and reproducibility.
