  • Abstract
    Computational scientists face many challenges when developing software that runs on large-scale parallel machines. However, software-engineering researchers haven´t studied their software development processes in much detail. To better understand the nature of software development in this context, the authors examined five large-scale computational science software projects operated at the five ASC-Alliance centers.
