CRESTA had two integrated strands: one focused on enabling a key set of co-design applications for exascale, the other focused on building and exploring appropriate systemware for exascale platforms.

Co-design was at the heart of the proposal. The co-design vehicles were closely integrated to the systemware development, providing guidance and feedback to the systemware development work. 

Applications

The applications represented in CRESTA were chosen as a representative sample from across the supercomputing domain including biomolecular systems, fusion energy, the virtual physiological human, numerical weather prediction and engineering.

SystemWare

We aimed to produce an integrated suite of systemware to support the execution of applications at the exascale, addressing the development environment, algorithms and libraries, user tools, and underpinning and cross-cutting technologies.
