Cyberinfrastructure Software Sustainability and Reusability Workshop

As the nation prepares for the TeraGrid “eXtreme Digital” future, establishing an independent, unbiased national software oversight committee focused on meeting the requirements of a much broader national science community could revitalize the nation’s interest in computational science and enable researchers to secure maximum advantage from the world class resources to be deployed. The goals, structure, and responsibilities of such an oversight committee is outlined as a proactive mechanism for dealing with software sustainability into the future.
