The excerpts come from a Congressional hearing on the National Science Foundation's Supercomputer Centers Program, which provides computational infrastructure to the academic science and engineering communities. The hearing discussed the history of the program and highlighted the successes of the NSF Supercomputer Centers. The main focus was on a proposed new program, Partnerships for Advanced Computational Infrastructure (PACI), which would build on and replace the current Supercomputer Centers program. The program would provide access to high -performance computing systems, associated highly trained staff and researchers, and promote education and training. This book provides an overview of the PACI program, its goals, and the review process for proposals. The hearing also addressed the importance of continued support for computational science and engineering, which has become an increasingly important tool in a wide range of research areas. The book emphasizes the need for a fair and open competition to select the best proposals and the commitment to a smooth transition to the new program to minimize the impact on the research community. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.…
