Linux Foundation to Form High Performance Software Foundation
The Linux Foundation (LF) has announced its intent to form the High Performance Software Foundation (HPSF).
“Through a series of technical projects, HPSF aims to build, promote, and advance a portable software stack for high performance computing (HPC),” the announcement says.
Initial projects within the foundation include:
- Spack – A flexible HPC package manager.
- Kokkos – A performance-portable programming model for writing modern C++ applications in a hardware-agnostic way.
- Apptainer – A container system and image format specifically designed for secure high-performance computing.
- WarpX – A performance-portable Particle-in-Cell code with advanced algorithms that won the 2022 Gordon Bell Prize.
The formation of HPSF is expected to be completed in May 2024.
