A group of BSC researchers will participate in the 6th JLESC Workshop, that will be held at RIKEN AICS, Kobe, Japan, from November 30th to December 2nd, 2016.
The workshop will gather leading researchers in high-performance computing from the JLESC partners Barcelona Supercomputing Center, INRIA, the University of Illinois, Argonne National Laboratory, Jülich Supercomputing Centre and RIKEN AICS to explore the most recent and critical issues in advancing the field of HPC from petascale to the extreme scale era.
The workshop featured sessions on these seven central topics:
- Applications and mini-apps
- Parallel Programming models and runtime
- Performance tools
- Resilience
- Big Data, I/O and in-situ visualization
- Numerical methods and algorithms
- Advanced architectures
A key objective of the workshop is to identify new research collaborations and establish a roadmap for their implementation.

About JLESC
Joint Laboratory for Extreme Scale Computing (JLESC) is an international, virtual organization whose goal is to enhance the ability of member organizations and investigators to make the bridge between Petascale and Extreme computing. The founding partners of the JLESC are INRIA and the University of Illinois (UIUC). Further members are Argonne National Laboratory (ANL), Barcelona Supercomputing Center (BSC), Julich Supercomputing Center (JSC) and RIKEN AICS.
JLESC involves computer scientists, engineers and scientists from other disciplines as well as from industry, to ensure that the research facilitated by the Laboratory addresses science and engineering's most critical needs and takes advantage of the continuing evolution of computing technologies.
