APOS-EU and APOS-RU are striving to ensure science and industry get more from next-generation supercomputers
The future of high-performance computing means two things: massive parallelism and heterogeneity. Processor manufacturers are adding more and more computational cores onto their CPUs, and HPC vendors are looking to augment these many-core chips with GPU-like accelerators to achieve the next level in number-crunching power. While such developments give scientists the potential to run bigger, faster, and more detailed simulations, there are significant challenges to be overcome before current application codes can exploit these hardware advances.
