Session

DescriptionAs HPC hardware architectures rapidly complexify, the demand for portable, vendor-neutral, and high-quality software has never been more critical. Join us for a deep dive into the High Performance Software Foundation (HPSF), a Linux Foundation neutral hub for open source, vendor-neutral, high-performance software dedicated to fostering a “virtuous cycle” of project quality, community growth, and long-term software sustainability. This minisymposium explores how HPSF tackles this challenge by bridging the gap between hardware vendors and application users through a collaborative software stack co-design approach. Attendees will gain insights into: * the HPSF and its missions: how open governance and third-party evaluations build societal trust and ensure reproducibility in the HPC ecosystem. * Institutional Perspectives: Why leading academic, national lab, and industrial members are aligning their strategies with this neutral hub. * Project Feedback: First-hand accounts from developers on how global collaboration impacts software life cycles and functionality. * Interactive Roadmap: A panel discussion on future directions to scale software sustainability for a broader community. Whether you are a developer, researcher, or stakeholder, discover how this global community leverages diversity to solve the most pressing challenges in HPC software today.
