Abstract: (WS)
High Performance Computing (HPC) has become an essential to ol in every researcher’s arsenal. Most research problems nowadays can be simulated, clarified or experimen- tally tested by using computational simulations. Research ers struggle with computa- tional problems when they should be focusing on their resear ch problems. Since most researchers have little-to-no knowledge in low-level comp uter science, they tend to look at computer programs as extensions of their minds and bodies instead of completely autonomous systems. Since computers do not work the same way as humans, the result is usually Low Performance Computing where HPC would be expected.- 04.25.D-
