DESCRIPTION;ENCODING=QUOTED-PRINTABLE:ABSTRACT: This panel will be a take-off on ABC's popular morning talk program. A lively format will be used to cover a number of controversial topics in the development and application of HPC. Four women from the HPC world will serve as "co-hosts," discussing topics with international experts associated with specific topics, such as Jean-Yves Berthou (European Exascale Software Initiative), Dave Turek (IBM), Ryan Waite (Microsoft), and Matt Fetes (venture capitalist). The goal is to air a variety of viewpoints in a lively and entertaining way.=0A=0AThe panel will raise thought-provoking questions such as why the HPC community has such a hard time converging on standards, whether co-design is really affordable at HPC scales, why efficiency isn't our goal rather than scalability, whether exascale investments can really pay off, and why high-level languages haven't had real impact in HPC.  Interactive polling will be used to involve the audience in charting a course for HPC's future - so be sure to bring your laptop or smartphone.
