DescriptionExtreme-scale computing must ultimately provide a means
to an end: enabling scientific discovery, and advancing
engineering design. The broadest and deepest impact of
extreme-scale computing requires an understanding of its
role in this larger context. In this talk, we provide a
description of the ecosystem to which extreme-scale
computing belongs, and the current challenges of
multi-physics and multi-scale simulations, the
importance of resilience, the possible role of machine
learning, the increased need for developer productivity
and software sustainability, and the overarching
concerns of trustworthiness and reproducibility. From
this holistic perspective, we present the specific
challenges and opportunities for algorithms research and
development.
