DESCRIPTION;ENCODING=QUOTED-PRINTABLE:ABSTRACT: The computing community is in the midst of disruptive architectural changes.  The advent of manycore and heterogeneous computing nodes, increased use of vectorization, light-weight threads and thread concurrency, along with concerns about energy and resilience, force us to reconsider every aspect of the computer system, software and application stack, often simultaneously. Application proxies have emerged as an important collection of tools for exploring this complex design space. =0A=0AIn this tutorial we first present a broad overview of available application proxies including traditional offerings (NAS Parallel Benchmarks, High Performance Linpack, etc.) in order to provide proper context.  We then focus on a new collection of proxies called compact apps and miniapps.  These two tools have proven especially effective in the past few years since they permit a broader collection of activities, including completely rewriting them.=0A=0AThis tutorial is designed for anyone interested in the design of future computer systems, languages, libraries and applications.  Hands-on activities will include the ability for attendees to download, compile and run miniapps on their local machines.  We will also provide access to NERSC resources and provide a web portal for modifying, compiling and running on a remote server.
