1. What particular skills are needed for HPC (e. g. , programming techniques, numerical techniques, familiarity with hardware such as memory hierarchies, domain-specific knowledge) and which of these skills are in short supply and/or most difficult to master?
2. Are academic programs (e. g. , computer science, domain-specific sciences) adequately preparing students for HPC. What should they be doing differently? What about training/preparation outside academia?
3. How important are specific programming models (eg, MPI, PGAS, OOP) and specific languages (eg, Fortran, C++, JAVA) for HPC?
4. Where does one learn how to write, debug, optimize, and document large codes that are maintainable?
5. How do we deal with the need for life-long (or at least career-long) learning?
6. Is social networking (Facebook, Linked. In, etc) useful for training recruiting, developing HPC talent?
7. One often hears that such qualities as initiative, curiosity, tenacity, logical reasoning, communication/cooperation, etc. are highly desired by employers. Is there anything special here as relates to HPC?
