Technology watch methodology
Introduction
The task of the Technology Watch is to observe, track, filter out and assess potential technologies from a very wide field extending beyond the normal confines of the sector. A Technology Watch process can be broken down into four main phases: a needs audit, data collection, processing of the data collected and integration and dissemination of the results. The Technology Watch process must be capable of identifying any scientific or technical innovation with potential to create opportunities or avoid threats.
Objectives of technology watch
Study and follow the latest trends and advances in technology both in terms of software and programming as well as in terms of hardware and procurement. On the one hand, new architectures and system designs are constantly released by the vendors of top systems, some more suited for particular user communities than others. On the other hand, new software technologies and paradigms, like cloud computing, general purpose GPU computing, etc. emerge from research or industrial efforts. This leads to a naturally heterogeneous distributed HPC infrastructure, and WP8 will establish permanent technology watch to cater for regional user needs. To facilitate this, the project will develop links with PRACE, the industry, and follow the advances in research and developments of HPC systems via scientific conferences and journals.
Methodology
- Organize meetings with vendors
Since the beginning of the project several 1 hour meetings have been organized with vendors and appended to the regular PSC meetings of the consortium. This is to continue in the remaining of the project.
- Ask vendors to fill our survey
This questionnaire is intended to help polling HPC hardware vendors to determine the most important technical trends that they sense in the HPC area. These trends are accumulated, analyzed and then synthesized into an uniform report. The polls will be repeated periodically in order to follow up the most relevant novelties that might impact the near future of HPC.
Vendor survey URL: http://survey.ipb.ac.rs/index.php?sid=82412&lang=en
- Collect know-hows from other projects
The public deliverables of relevant projects (DEISA, PRACE, EGI, EMI, etc.) may content useful information for our work packages.
- Participate on SC/ISC conferences and write digest about the new technical solutions which has been discovered. These summaries should be created about those technological areas which have been defined above
- The evaluation and dissemination of the new technologies can be done by using the hp-see-tech@lists.hp-see.eu mailing list and http://hpseewiki.ipb.ac.rs/index.php/Technology_Watch wiki page
- Liaise with PRACE AISBL (Association International Sans But Lucratif) and include in the related MoU the possibility access the technology watch information that is generated within PRACE

Information expansion and dissemination
The technology watch is a complex task where we need to follow up several technological areas. If somebody participate on SC/ISC conferences then he needs to write a technical digest about the new technical solutions which have been discovered and these summaries should be created about those technological areas which have been defined by this section. The dissemination can be done by using the hp-see-tech mailing list and HP-SEE wiki. The new HPC trends will be collected from the vendors over that survey which has been created for this purpose.
