Abstract :
Helping the high-performance computing and communications (HPCC) community to share software and information, the National HPCC Software Exchange (NHSE) is an Internet-accessible resource that promotes the exchange of software and information among those involved with HPCC. Now in its infancy, the NHSE will link varied discipline-oriented repositories of software and documents, and encourage Grand Challenge teams and other members of the HPCC community to contribute to these repositories and use them. By acting as a national online library of software that makes widely distributed materials available through one place, the exchange will cut down the amount of time, talent and money spent reinventing the wheel. The target audiences for the NHSE include scientists and engineers in diverse HPCC application fields, computer scientists, users of government and academic supercomputer centers, and industrial users
