As an industrial user with very high stakes in the operation and maintenance of complex systems such as nuclear power plants, EDF has been engaged in simulation for many years. We feel that exaflops software should not only be thought of as a way of tackling daunting research problems but should also take into account the sometimes equally daunting requirements that stem from an industrial usage perspective. We do feel that, whatever the hard changes that will probably have to be made to various software aspects, we should not lose sight of the fact that continuity paths also have to be found in order to make those big changes acceptable and profitable to many. We identify in this paper what we think are priority research themes that could benefit from an international collaboration.

Key Words: HPC simulation • parallel programming • uncertainty and risk quantification • simulation platform • numerical solvers
