2021 Turing Award Laureate Jack Dongarra's Lecture: 'A Not So Simple Matter of Software'

Jack J. Dongarra received the 2021 ACM A.M. Turing Award for pioneering contributions to numerical algorithms and libraries that enabled high performance computational software to keep pace with exponential hardware improvements for over four decades. Dongarra is a University Distinguished Professor of Computer Science in the Electrical Engineering and Computer Science Department at the University of Tennessee. He also holds appointments with Oak Ridge National Laboratory and the University of Manchester.

Dongarra delivered his Turing Lecture, "A Not So Simple Matter of Software," at SC22 (https://sc22.supercomputing.org/) on Tuesday, November 15, 2022. In his lecture, he examines how high-performance computing has changed over the last 40 years, looks toward future trends, and discusses how a new generation of software libraries and algorithms is needed to use dynamic, distributed, and parallel environments effectively.
