Co-Design with Industry

Co-design brings together vendors, hardware architects, software developers, domain scientists, computer scientists, and applied mathematicians to make decisions about hardware and software components. To ensure that future DOE scientific problems and applications can take advantage of emerging computer architectures, we are engaged in the co-design process.
