Third International Workshop on Software Engineering for High Performance Computing in Computational Science and Engineering

This workshop is concerned with identifying and applying appropriate software engineering (SE) tools and practices (e.g., code generators, static analyzers, validation + verification (V&V) practices, design approaches, and maintenance practices) to support and ease the development of Computational Science & Engineering (CSE) software for High Performance Computing (HPC). Specifically: CSE applications, which include, large parallel models/simulations of the physical world running on HPC systems. CSE applications that utilize HPC systems (e.g., GPUs computing, compute clusters, or supercomputers) to manage and/or manipulate large amounts of data. Despite the increasing demand for utilizing HPC for CSE applications, software development for HPC historically attracted little attention from the SE community. Paradoxically, the HPC CSE community has increasingly been adopting SE techniques and tools. Indeed, the development of CSE software for HPC differs significantly from the development of more traditional business information systems, from which many SE best practices and tools have been drawn.
