Special Issue Introduction: The Gordon Bell Special Prize for HPC-Based COVID-19 Research Finalists
As the entire world realizes, 2020 was an extraordinary year. One of the brighter aspects of the year’s exceptionalism was the numerous demonstrations that high-performance computing (HPC) could contribute to solutions ofmany of themost difficult problems that our society faces. In recognition of those benefits for the one of the most pressing problems of 2020 and 2021, Gordon Bell, a pioneer in high-performance and parallel computing, endowed the Gordon Bell Special Prize for HPCBased COVID-19 Research. The prize recognizes outstanding research achievement towards the understanding of the COVID-19 pandemic through the use of HPC. The purpose of the award is to recognize the innovative parallel computing contributions towards the solution of the global crisis. This special issue presents the four papers that were selected as finalists for the award. The Gordon Bell Prize Committee selected these nominations based on performance and innovation in their computational methods, in addition to their contributions towards understanding the nature, spread and/or treatment of the disease. More specifically, the committee evaluated nominations on the basis of the following considerations:
