  4. PANEL 1: WHY EUROPE NEEDS AN EXPANDED HPC STRATEGY? • Moderator: Steve Conway, IDC • Panelists : • Axel Berg, SARA • Richard Blake, Daresbury Laboratory • Arndt Bode, Technical University of Munich • FriedelHossfeld, ForschungszentrumJuelich • HerveMouren, Teratec • StephaneRequena, GENCI • Anwar Osseyran, SARA • Marie-Christine Sawley, ETH Zurich - CERN

  5. Panel One Questions • 1. From 2007 to 2009, European investments in large supercomputers fell behind while other areas of the world increased their investments. What could happen if Europe continued to under-invest in large supercomputers?

  6. Panel One Questions • 2. How important is it for Europe as a whole to pursue HPC leadership? Can Europe compete with the U.S., China and Japan only through the programs of individual nations in Europe?

  7. Panel One Questions • 3. How important is it for Europe to pursue leadership in specific areas of science, industry and HPC technology – rather than try to be a leader in every area? What are some of these areas?

  8. PANEL 2: HOW SHOULD EUROPE IMPLEMENT THE HPC STRATEGY? • Moderator: Earl Joseph, IDC • Panelists : • Axel Berg, SARA • Richard Blake, Daresbury Laboratory • Arndt Bode, Technical University of Munich • FriedelHossfeld, ForschungszentrumJuelich • HerveMouren, Teratec • StephaneRequena, GENCI • Anwar Osseyran, SARA • Marie-Christine Sawley, ETH Zurich - CERN

  9. Panel Two Questions • 1. What are the most important things Europe should do to implement the HPC strategy?

  10. Panel Two Questions • 2. What are the most important things for Europe to avoid while implementing the HPC strategy?

  11. Panel Two Questions • 3. The surveys IDC did for the EU HPC project showed overwhelming support for giving industry access to large HPC systems. How should this happen?
