Crossing the Chasm: Towards common Software Infrastructure for Earth System Model development.

IS-ENES2 is hosting a workshop in Reading (UK) on the 24th/25th of October (midday to midday) to discuss broad principles for aligning coding efforts “in the chasm” between hardware aware libraries (such as MPI) and the scientific libraries needed to build weather and climate models. The workshop aims to bring together those working on these future technologies and is intended to inform current and future developments so as to maximise community resources for the computing challenges ahead. The workshop will precede a larger workshop on the infrastructure (including software) needed for the next decade of climate science, being held at the same venue.
