DescriptionWhen people think of High Performance Computing, visions of simulating the motion of thousands of stars and planets or jet engines come to mind. While these are indeed HPC applications, simulation-led innovation is now occurring in a wide range of industrial and consumer product applications. These range from predicting phase chemistry of a detergent to strength of a package, to how skin moisturizers actually work to make skin beautiful. Computationally intensive simulation is the perfect link between incomplete theory and hard to run experiments and leads to important insights that in turn lead to innovations that billions of people use every day
