Abstract:
The development of efficient software in terms of low-complexity algorithms, optimal programming languages/environments and code optimization is an essential ingredient for cross-disciplinary research, development and industrial use cases. Yet, due to a lack of HPC expertise, human resources or other constraints, software solutions are often sub-optimal. In academia, this issue is amplified by sustainability challenges. These and other challenges result in a severe gap between optimal, fast software and actual productivity in the corresponding application fields. The main objective of HPC.Bw is to strengthen HPC research and HPC knowledge transfer at the universities of the armed forces in Germany. Interdisciplinary exchange on HPC-relevant problem settings shall be fostered. This exchange will not only be fruitful for the various groups and faculties involved (including mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, economics and social sciences), but it is also meant to identify relevant research directions in high performance computing. In the long term, a joint HPC competence platform shall evolve from HPC.Bw.Visit the Project Website
