High Performance Computing computational science and engineering

The April 2021 Communications of the ACM special section on computing in the Arab world features an article by ECRC Director and KAUST founding dean David Keyes on preparing the exascale workforce. Keyes muses on the lure of hands-on opportunities to resolve today’s application-architecture tension with innovative algorithms for recruiting students, and he follows the placement of a dozen recent ECRC doctoral students from the MENA region in the US exascale computing project and Saudi industry. For them, “graduation” means an upgrade to a more powerful computer :-). Several have also seen

David Keyes works at the interface of computational science and engineering and high performance computing, which he helped edit into the DNA of KAUST as a founding Dean in 2009 and then as director of the Extreme Computing Research Center. He currently serves as Senior Associate to the President, Chair of the KAUST RDIA Economies of the Future committee, and delegate to the Saudi Center for the Fourth Industrial Revolution.
