Description

HPC Co-design is a set of interactive, dependent design activities used as a vehicle for simultaneous improvement of HPC Software and Hardware over a longer period. We describe the co-design model that is used by the Cray EMEA Research Lab and also the way that co-design informs technical project management. We then describe some specific co-design activities in the area of memory hierarchy design, heterogeneous systems and workflow management and show how those projects might affect future hardware specifications.
