• Abundant hardware resources change some of the traditional OS tradeoffs
• New programming models and tools• Platform and tools need to be composable
and scalable from desktop to server to cluster to cloud
Multicore is Mainstream
• Opportunities for significant improvements in management & facilities costs
• Value-add service, not just raw CPU cycles• Data islands where you can send your
computation
HPC As A Service
• Software infrastructure agility• Legacy code migration• Transparent checkpoint• Preemption & migration
