HPC and calculation codes co-evolve in a retroactive loop, where each progress of one implies evolutions in the other... and vice versa (parallelism, new development techniques, etc.).
Making the most of this ecosystem is essential in order to be able to fully use the power of HPC and execute high-performance codes that meet the digital quality criteria that companies expect to make decisions that are often strategic. Developments in hardware (FPGA, GPGPU, vector maps, etc.) and the path to exaflop are reflected in an overhaul of programming interfaces (oneAPI, etc.), calculation codes and study methodologies (Reduction of Model, nested calculations, etc.).
In this workshop, we address the evolution aspects of computing interfaces and study methodologies related to the evolution of HPC.
