DescriptionThis session will present on key takeaways on what to expect from SC21, including an overview on top research papers that were submitted for the 2021 Gordon Bell Prize Awards, which recognizes outstanding achievements in high performance computing. These papers highlight various research on how HPC was used in our effort to understand and fight the novel Coronavirus.
Additionally, this session will present detailed analyses of the TOP500 list of supercomputers, which serves as a “Who’s Who” in the field of High Performance Computing (HPC). It started as a list of the most powerful supercomputers in the world and has evolved to a major source of information about trends in HPC. The 58th TOP500 list will be published in November 2021 just in time for SC21.
