This workshop will focus on implementations of geophysical applications, in addition to the application in reservoir, petroleum engineering and geology presented by practitioners at the cutting edge of the field. Topics will include recent advances in HPC, as well as challenges due to the end of Moore’s Law and its impact on the Oil and Gas Industry, and tools such as parallel visual analytics and routines that can be coupled with data analysis and simulations run on new HPC architectures or so-called integrated data analysis, visualization, simulation,computing environments that provide an end-to-end solution for analysis and visualization of scientific data and simulation results.
