> - Extreme scale computing
> 
> Extreme scale (a.k.a. exascale) levels of computing power presents 
> opportunities for novel modeling, simulation and prediction, as well 
> potential transformative developments and discoveries in biology, basic 
> energy sciences, nuclear energy, fusion energy, nuclear physics, high energy 
> physics and climate science. Nonetheless, the path towards exascale computing 
> brings about a number of complex challenges, in hardware and software, which 
> will impact the development of application codes. To learn more about current 
> efforts on the topic check the report "The Opportunities and Challenges of 
> Exascale Computing",

> - Tool releases
> 
> Global Arrays. The latest release (5.0.2) incorporates some important bug 
> fixes for the major release 5.0. See http://www.emsl.pnl.gov/docs/global for 
> details.
> 
> Hypre. The latest release (2.7.0b) provides a new, more robust smoother for 
> the parallel algebraic multigrid method implemented in BoomerAMG. Changes to 
> the Fortran interface have also been implemented, to facilitate the use of 
> MPI communicators. See http://computation.llnl.gov/casc/hypre for details 
> (and a list of bug fixes).
> 
> SLEPc. The latest release (3.1-p6) incorporates bug fixes for the major 
> release 3.1. See http://www.grycap.upv.es/slepc for details.
> 
> SuperLU. The latest releases of the sequential (SuperLU) and distributed 
> (SuperLU_DIST) versions (4.1 and 2.5, respectively) unify the 
> superlu_options_t{} structure, replace mc64ad.f by mc64ad.c (through f2c), 
> and incorporate bug fixes. See http://crd.lbl.gov/~xiaoye/SuperLU for details.
> 
> TAU. The latest release (2.20.2) provides improved support for profiling 
> GPGPU applications (for CUDA and OpenCL), functionality to instrument 
> libraries where the source code is not available, functionality to track IO 
> parameters, and improvements in Perfexplorer and ParaProf. See 
> http://tau.uoregon.edufor details (and a list of bug fixes).
> 
> Trilinos. The latest release (10.6) adds improvements to many of Trilinos' 
> existing packages, as well as Teko, which is a new library for the 
> implementation of blocked and segregated preconditioners for iterative 
> solvers. See http://trilinos.sandia.gov for details.
