Welcome to the SCD Roadmap Atlas
On this site we present a broadly defined divisional vision for high-performance
computing in the next two to five years. Each of the roadmaps below provides a
high-level assessment of activities and objectives the division will pursue as
we make our collective way into the next century. These roadmaps provide both
an overview and an outline of where we hope to invest our time and resources to
advance scientific computing for the atmospheric and related sciences.
