Special Event

Exascale-class systems are a pre-requisites for Integrated Simulation Workflows in Computer Aided Engineering. Leading ISVs of commercial computer aided engineering (CAE) software are readying their packages to take advantage of Exascale systems when they eventually come online. Open source software initiatives led by Universities and government laboratories are also developing Exascale-ready applications. While end users in specific markets and with specific applications have a different set of technical, economic and motivational drivers, Exascale systems represent a simple and elegant way to maximize the overall efficiency of the Integrated Simulation Workflows and the exploitation of CAE software. The talk will draw upon the academic and industrial experience of HPE and E4 as leaders of the design, manufacturing and deployment of HPC systems to set out a possible roadmap towards Exascale CAE.
