The convergence of high-performance computing (HPC) and AI is shaping the future of applications and the new software development trend. Applications demand higher computational power due to the vast amounts of data and analytics. How could HPC applications benefit from the new software development trends? How could HPC empower the processing of large volumes of data leading to new types of AI applications?

The Laboratory for Software Analytics and Pervasive Parallelism, led by Ali Jannesari in the Department of Computer Science at Iowa State University, investigates and studies the problems and challenges primarily arising from answering these research questions. We primarily work at the intersection of HPC and AI (data science). Our mission is to advance state of the art in building reliable and efficient software utilizing AI, parallel computing and HPC. Our results and research findings help software developers to utilize the modern heterogeneous parallel computing platforms to develop complex software of in-demand areas such as data science and HPC.
