SUMMARY:IK01 - Building Bridges between Application, System Software, and 
 Hardware Developers
DESCRIPTION:Estela Suarez (Jülich Supercomputing Centre)\n\nHigh-Performan
 ce Computing (HPC) is intrinsically interdisciplinary, bringing together c
 ommunities with distinct goals, methods, and vocabularies; from applicatio
 n scientists seeking scientific insight, system software developers ensuri
 ng portability and robustness, to hardware architects optimizing for perfo
 rmance and efficiency. Although these actors contribute to a shared ecosys
 tem, they often operate within different cultural and professional framewo
 rks.<br>Co-design has emerged as a powerful mechanism to bridge these divi
 des. Beyond mere technical collaboration, it functions as a process of “cu
 ltural translation,” enabling fact-based dialogue among application develo
 pers, software engineers, and hardware designers. By exposing real workloa
 d requirements and clarifying system constraints at different layers of th
 e stack, co-design fosters mutual understanding and shared ownership of de
 sign decisions. When user communities are engaged early and their feedback
  is visibly integrated, trust in the acceptance of new HPC solutions incre
 ases.<br>Drawing on fifteen years of experience in European HPC research a
 nd system development projects, this talk reflects upon and aims to trigge
 r discussion around open questions on: How can co-design continue to media
 te between the distinct cultures of science, engineering, and user communi
 ties? And how might its collaborative principles inform broader questions 
 of trust in scientific processes, where technical transparency must be pai
 red with social legitimacy?\n\nDomain: Chemistry and Materials, Climate, W
