SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 
    Overview: This notice is issued on behalf of the NITRD High End 
Computing (HEC) Interagency Working Group (IWG) and the National 
Strategic Computing Initiative (NSCI) Joint Program Office for 
Strategic Computing (JPO-SC). Agencies of the HEC IWG and JPO-SC are 
jointly conducting a CoI meeting focused on future computing. Experts 
from government, private industry, and academia will discuss emerging 
and future application drivers, emerging computing paradigms, longer-
term future computing possibilities, and identify gaps and 
opportunities in future computing landscape. The CoI meeting will take 
place on August 5 from 8:15 a.m. to 5:45 p.m. (ET) and August 6 from 
8:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. (ET) at the NITRD NCO, Washington, DC. In-

agenda and information about how to join the webcast will be available 
the week of the event at: https://www.nitrd.gov/nitrdgroups/index.php?title=FC-COI-2019.
    Workshop Goals: HEC IWG and JPO-SC will use information gathered 
from this workshop to help update the strategic computing objectives 
and to inform agencies in planning of their agency-specific research 
agenda.
    Workshop Objectives: Identify and discuss: Emerging and future HPC 
applications and their impact on future computing systems and 
paradigms; emerging computing paradigms and how these technologies can 
be integrated effectively with existing infrastructures; and longer-
term future computing possibilities.
