SUMMARY:The Swiss National Supercomputing Center’s Involvement in the High
  Performance Software Foundation
DESCRIPTION:Nur Aiman Fadel (ETH Zurich / CSCS)\n\nThe Swiss National Supe
 rcomputing Center is exploring future collaboration with the High Performa
 nce Software Foundation to strengthen the sustainability and interoperabil
 ity of key high-performance computing (HPC) software components. As HPC sy
 stems grow in architectural complexity and scale, coordinated efforts arou
 nd software standardization, portability, and lifecycle management become 
 increasingly critical.\n\nWithin this context, CSCS is evaluating opportun
 ities to contribute selected software assets and expertise to the HPSF eco
 system. In particular, tools such as ReFrame and FirecREST represent matur
 e, production-grade solutions that could benefit from broader community en
 gagement and shared governance. Their inclusion would support improved int
 egration across heterogeneous infrastructures, foster adoption of common i
 nterfaces, and enable collaborative evolution aligned with emerging HPC re
 quirements.\n\nWhile discussions remain exploratory, this potential collab
 oration reflects a shared vision of open, community-driven development and
  long-term software sustainability. By aligning with HPSF, CSCS aims to co
 ntribute to a more cohesive HPC software stack, reduce fragmentation, and 
 accelerate innovation through cross-institutional cooperation.\n\nDomain: 
 Applied Social Sciences and Humanities, Computational Methods and Applied 
 Mathematics\n\nSession Chairs: Julien Bigot (Maison de la Simulation; CEA,
  CNRS, université Paris-Saclay, UVSQ); Todd Gamblin (Lawrence Livermore Na
 tional Laboratory); and Emily Bourne (EPFL)\n\n
