Yet, widespread take-up of PGAS by HPC developers has not happened. Advances in PGAS APIs promise to significantly increase PGAS use, avoiding the effort and risk involved in adopting a new language, and promising higher efficiency on modern systems than message passing can achieve. =0A=0AThis BOF gives a concise update on progress on PGAS communication APIs, presents recent experiences in porting applications to these interfaces, and discusses how PGAS can evolve to maximize take-up by application developers.
