High End Computing University Research Activity: The HECURA initiative invites research and education projects focused on novel programming models, languages, compilers and underlying communication libraries to enable extreme-scale highly computation- and data-intensive scientific and engineering applications in high-end computing (HEC) environments. Researchers in a wide range of science and engineering fields increasingly depend upon computation and simulation to augment theoretical and experimental studies. In fact, modern HEC systems comprised of thousands to tens-of-thousands of processors now allow researchers to solve previously intractable scientific problems. However, researchers depend not only on access to state-of-the-art HEC systems, but on the availability of state-of-the-art tools that allow them to exploit HEC system capabilities to the fullest extent. To simplify the challenges of developing scientific and engineering codes that are portable, scale well on HEC systems, and effectively utilize computational resources, further research focused on programming models and languages for HEC is needed. The gap between HEC processing power and HEC application performance points to a need to develop practical parallel programming models that provide ease of use, increase programmer productivity, and improve application performance and scalability, while taking advantage of underlying hardware, communication interconnects and operating systems. This solicitation is concerned exclusively with research in novel programming models, languages, compilers and underlying communication libraries for extreme-scale highly computation- and data-intensive scientific and engineering applications. The target hosts for these tools are next generation systems comprised of tens-of-thousands to hundreds-of-thousands of processors.
