	Next generation HPC for processing sensor data for Imaging in Nuclear Femtography is entering one of its very early stages. The complexity from seven-dimensional data and many scales and levels of interactions between the colliding particles and what is observed create many challenges. To address these challenges the “Next-generation imaging filters and mesh-based data representation for phase-space calculations in nuclear femtography (CNF19-04)” project proposed to put together an interdisciplinary team to:		Next generation HPC for processing sensor data for Imaging in Nuclear Femtography is entering one of its very early stages.
