Critical Gateways Issues • Science Gateways compete with business as usual for the end user research scientist • No direct access to HPC systems may be possible leading to apparent lack of control for users • No “End to end solutions” If part of the research needs require old ways Gateways may be avoided • Learning to use Gateways should provide substantial added benefit –Cost/Benefit Issues for users • Flexibility to integrate new applications as needed by community quickly is critical to keep the user community engaged National Center for Supercomputing Applications
