PANEL Moderator: Paul Messina Panelists: Arthur Bland, Jackie Chen, Phil Colella, Jack Dongarra, Thom Dunning, Wendy Huntoon, Dan Reed Time: Tuesday, November 13th, 3:30pm – 5pm Location: C155/156 Description: The HPC, computer science, and mathematics communities face disruptive changes due to the end of Dennard scaling and the emergence of quantum, neuromorphic, and other technologies.

Topology-Aware Space-Shared Co-Analysis of Large-Scale Molecular Dynamics Simulations

PAPER Authors: Preeti Malakar, Todd Munson, Christopher Knight, Venkatram Vishwanath, Michael E. Paka Time: Tuesday, November 13th, 4:30pm – 5pm Location: C146 Description: Analysis of scientific simulation data can be concurrently executed with simulation either in time- or space-shared mode. This mitigates the I/O bottleneck. However it results in either stalling the simulation for performing

Compression for Scientific Data

TUTORIAL Presenters: Franck Cappello, Peter Lindstrom Time: Monday, November 12th, 1:30pm – 5pm Location: C141 Description: Large-scale numerical simulations and experiments generate very large datasets that are difficult to analyze, store, and transfer. This problem will be exacerbated for future generations of systems. Data reduction becomes a necessity in order to reduce as much as
