  8. Your Role in the Meeting • View of the World Sessions, Tuesday and Wednesday • Listen, distill, and collect “key messages for NCSA” from each presentation, e.g. (some hypothetical examples) • Cloud computing will be viable for many cutting edge computational science and engineering applications • NSF will be unable to fund the next generation of HPC by itself due to acquisition and operation costs • We will share, discuss, rank, and select the most important such assumptions in discussion sessions on Wednesday & Thursday • Strategy Imperatives and Options Sessions, Thursday • Prepare, in advance, your thoughts on what NCSA must do, e.g. • NCSA must implement and test cloud computing • NCSA must find additional sources of funding for next-gen HPC • Prepare, in advance, your thoughts on what NCSA can do, e.g. • New Principal Activity: Cloud Computing for Computational Science & Eng. • New Core Competence: Development of Alternative Funding Sources
