HPCC has developed good research ideas but cannot implement them as solving computing's hardest problem with 1 percent of the funding
-
HPCC applications are very complex and use essentially all computer capabilities and also have synchronization and performance constraints from HPCC
|
We have learnt to use commodity hardware either
-
partially as in Origin 2000/SP2 with consumer CPU's but custom network or
-
fully as in PC/Workstation cluster with fast Ethernet/ATM but here nobody knows how to use such systems in production -- this is the software side of commodity hardware

Users want more attractive "problem solving environments" insulated from arcane changing HPCC backend
