High-End Computing Revitalization Task Force (HETRTF), Federal Plan for High-End Computing (May 10, 2004) (full-text).

Overview
This Plan offers a vision for a proactive Federal effort that advances high-end computing technology to address many of society’s most challenging large-scale computational problems and, in doing so, strengthens the nation’s global leadership in the sciences, engineering, and technology. The Task Force focused its scope on technology directly needed for high-end computing. Consequently, a number of important technological components essential to science and engineering, such as visualization, networking, grid computing, security, and applications-specific software were not considered by this study.
