2022 Position Papers: CASC Top Priorities and Challenges
This series of reports on top priorities and challenges for the research computing and data (RCD) community details cross-cutting recommendations as well as identifying a set of areas which represent specific priorities and challenges for members of the ecosystem to address. The topics were selected through recent CASC member surveys and discussions, representing current top priority areas requiring immediate action. Each of the reports details concerns expressed by CASC members, and offers a set of recommendations for actions by the CASC membership, as well as the broader community, to address these critical issues. In any given year, the top issues may change, so CASC intends to conduct periodic surveys and summarize such issues for consideration.
