Foil 167 Role of Government and DoD in HPCC Simulation Applications

From CPS615-Introduction-Course,Driving Technology and HPCC Current Status and Futures CPS615 Basic Simulation Track for Computational Science -- Fall Semester 96. by Geoffrey C. Fox *
1 The limited nearterm industrial use of HPCC implies that it is critical for Government and DoD to support and promote
2 DoD Simulation: Dual-Use Philosophy implies
  • Can use Commercial MPP hardware and basic systems software
  • Cannot rely on commercial market for application and sophisticated systems software and indeed hardware targeted at engineering and science simulation
3 Manufacturing Support can lead to future US Industry leadership in advanced HPCC based manufacturing environments 10-20 years from now
  • Industry cannot afford and even consider long term investment needed to integrate HPCC into manufacturing
  • Government should support long-term not short-term needs
  • Government must involve manufacturing Industry in its plans
  • Currently federal Initiatives are correctly involving Industry in more major fashion than before but focussing on short term needs
