ATIP Workshop on International Exascale and Next-Generation Computing Programs

亚洲技术信息计划计划在美国科罗拉多州丹佛市的SC‘17会议上举办一次研讨会，提供日本、中国、印度和其他亚洲国家的高性能计算机关键研发的平衡图景。对于美国专家来说，要完全了解亚洲国家正在发生的事情并非易事。对于年轻的美国研究人员来说尤其如此，他们不知道从哪里可以获得亚洲国家最好的研究成果。更广泛的影响将包括美国在高性能计算研究方面的潜在合作努力。更重要的是，它使美国研究人员能够跟上亚洲的发展，并将最好的想法纳入他们在美国的研究。它还将使美国的资助机构能够与重债穷国资助机构的优先事项保持同步。研讨会将包括演讲、海报，以及来自大学、政府机构和行业的亚洲研究人员在会议上就系统、中心和政府计划、组件、系统软件和应用程序的进展以及人力资源和生态系统开发进行的讨论。这一平衡计划将使美国研究界能够更全面地了解当前形势，并更好地评估潜在的合作机会。作为这项提议的一部分，ATIP将支持至少8名年轻的美国研究人员，他们被认为在与亚洲同行重叠的研究兴趣方面具有很高的潜力，并且通常无法进入SC。国际研究界成员同意支持来自亚洲国家的类似学生参加，他们渴望分享自己的想法并参与合作工作。拟议中的研讨会的关键方面将是美国和国际HPC研究界成员与亚洲顶尖科学家和顶尖研究生进行互动和直接讨论的独特机会。

The Asian Technology Information Program (ATIP) proposes to hold a Workshop at SC'17 in Denver, CO, that will provide a balanced picture of key HPC R&D in Japan, China, India, and other Asian countries. It is not easy way for US experts to fully understand what is occurring in Asian countries. This is specifically true for younger US researchers who are not familiar with where to access the best research in Asian countries. Broader impacts will include potential US collaborative efforts in HPC research. More importantly, it enables US researchers to keep abreast of developments in Asia and to incorporate the best ideas in their research in the US. It will also enable funding agencies in the US to keep abreast of the priorities of funding agencies in HPC. The Workshop will include presentations, posters, and discussions by Asian researchers from universities, government institutes, and industry in sessions addressing systems, centers, and government plans, progress in components, system software, and applications, and human resource and eco-system development. This balanced program will enable the US research community to gain a more holistic understanding of the current situation and better evaluate potential opportunities for collaboration. As part of this proposal, ATIP will support at least eight young US researchers identified as having a high potential for research interests that overlap with their Asian counterparts and who would normally be unable to attend SC. Members of the international research community have agreed to support attendance by similar students from Asian countries who are anxious to share their ideas and engage in collaborative work. The key aspect of the proposed Workshop will be the unique opportunity for members of the US and international HPC research community to interact and have direct discussions with the top Asian scientists and leading graduate students.
