The Advanced Scientific Computing Advisory
Committee (ASCAC) provides valuable, independent
advice to the Department of Energy on a variety
of complex scientific and technical issues related
to its Advanced Scientific Computing Research
program. ASCAC’s recommendations include
advice on long-range plans, priorities, and strategies
to address more effectively the scientific aspects
of advanced scientific computing including the
relationship of advanced scientific computing
to other scientific disciplines, and maintaining
appropriate balance among elements of the program.
The Committee formally reports to the Director,
Office of Science. The Committee primarily includes
representatives of universities, national laboratories,
and industries involved in advanced computing
research. Particular attention is paid to obtaining
a diverse membership with a balance among scientific
disciplines, institutions, and geographic regions.
