本标准配置文件的目的是 --根据POSIX标准套件定义超级计算应用程序环境概要文件，以便 在超级计算环境中提供应用程序和用户可移植性。 --确定目前正式标准未满足的额外超级计算要求。 此概要文件指定了POSIX环境中超级计算应用程序和用户所需的标准、选项和附加要求。 本简介主要关注超级计算应用程序和超级计算机用户的可移植性。 超级计算应用程序在计算任务的规模上不同于其他计算应用程序。 超级计算应用程序的大规模产生了对一些服务的需求，而这些服务在较小的系统中经常缺失或不足。本概要文件的目标是详细介绍提供这些服务的环境。 该配置文件使用了传统超级计算机环境的模型:一个集中的计算和数据服务实体，可以从其他不同能力的计算和数据服务实体访问。虽然集中式实体可以是一台物理机器，但此配置文件中没有任何内容可以排除该实体是工作站的集合或用户视为一个实体的大规模并行机器。 本简介的受众包括超级计算机采购商、超级计算机供应商和应用程序开发人员。 通过指定所需标准和任何相应选项的列表，此配置文件使每个目标群体受益。

The purpose of this standard profile is --To define a supercomputing application environment profile, based on the POSIX suite of standards, in order to provide application and user portability in a supercomputing environment. --To identify additional supercomputing requirements not currently met by formal standards. This profile specifies standards, options, and additional requirements needed by supercomputing applications and users in a POSIX environment. This profile focuses on the portability of supercomputing applications and the users of supercomputers. Supercomputing applications differ from other computing applications in the scale of the compute task. The massive scale of supercomputing applications creates the need for some services that are frequently missing or inadequate in smaller systems. The goal of this profile is to detail an environment that provides these services. This profile uses the model of the traditional supercomputer environment: a centralized compute and data serve entity with access from other compute and data serve entities of varying capability. While the centralized entity could be one physical machine, there is nothing in this profile to preclude that entity being a collection of workstations or a massively parallel machine that is seen by the user as one entity. The audience of this profile includes supercomputer procurers, supercomputer vendors, and application developers. By specifying a list of required standards and any corresponding options, this profile benefits each of the targeted groups.
