Next Challenge: Heterogeneous Parallel Systems
- Cluster computers
- Wide area computing (``metacomputing'')
- ``Parallel virtual computers'' constructed from HP devices and networks
- Potential to increase dramatically the scope and impact of HPC
- Usability depends, once again, on availability of parallel tools,
algorithms, compilers, etc
