• NGS Scope design methods composition, and
  runtime support of complex applications with
  end-to-end performance, on distributed
  heterogeneous platforms, including Grids, GiBs,
  embedded systems
• Program Components
• TPES (Technology for Performance Engineered
  Systems)
• and
• CADSS (Complex Application Development and
  Support Systems)
• TPES Methodology for performance engineered
  computing systems (end-to-end performance
  analysisprediction)
• performance frameworks, multilevel models for
  analysis and prediction
• CADDS Use of performance technology in a new
  software architecture for application development
  and run-time support
• new dynamic (autonomic) compilation/run-time
  system technology
• application composition technology
