Real Bottleneck

Here's an interesting article discussing that the gap between advances of parallel computing and the knowledge of parallel application developers (scientists) is a serious one. Even though there are many optimized libaries and rapidly growing supercomputers, making them available to scientists in various fields is an important issue. As for computer science researchers the fight to overcome the gap between peak performance and sustained system performance (divergence problem) is pivotal.
