Topic: Expanding the Leadership Scientific Software Developer and User Communities: A panel discussion

Description: This month we have panelists representing the broader scientific software developer communities:

In opening remarks, panelists briefly address the following questions from their perspective:

  • What are some important similarities and differences between the software development and use in your community relative to large-scale HPC environments such as the DOE Leadership Computing Facilities (LLNL, OLCF, ALCF, NERSC)?
  • Do you think it makes sense to include your scientific software community as part of what we mean by Leadership Scientific Software?
  • If so, what is most important to consider if we attempt to expand the definition of leadership computing to include the community you represent? If not, why?
  • What are some issues in the HPC software community that are not being sufficiently addressed right now that need to be considered to better address your important requirements?

Why attend: To discuss the potential expansion and limits of leadership scientific software beyond high-performance computing.
