Software Technology & Performance
Tendency to focus on hardware
Software required to bridge an ever widening gap
- hardware capabilities and user needs
Gaps between usable and deliverable performance is very steep
- Performance only if the data and controls are setup just right
- Otherwise, dramatic performance degradations, very unstable situation
- Will become more unstable
Challenge of libraries, PSEs and tools is formidable with Tflop/s level, even greater with Pflop/s, some might say insurmountable.
