Foil 161 Opportunities for HPCC in the Science and Engineering Simulation Arena

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 *
In spite of the large and very succesful national activity, simulation will not be a large "real world" sales opportunity for MPP's
  • Maybe difficulties for Thinking Machines illustrate this
However some areas of national endeavor will be customers for MPP's used for simulation
  • Large Scale Academic Calculations
    • Value of Increased Computation demonstrated in many disciplines
    • Codes are sufficiently small that software engineering considerations of adapting 1,000,000 lines not so important
  • Petroleum Industry
    • Resevoir Simulation
    • Siesmic Data Analysis
  • Some Earth and Space Science including
    • Climate and Weather Forecasting
