SUMMARY:MS5D - Modern Fortran: Powering Computational Science and Engineer
 ing in High-Performance Computing
DESCRIPTION:Minisymposium\n\nFortran, originating in the 1950s, is a compi
 led imperative programming language renowned for numeric and scientific co
 mputation. Despite seven decades of technological evolution and competitio
 n from languages like C++, Python, and Julia, Fortran remains predominant 
 in computational sciences. Its efficiency-focused design and readability c
 ater to scientists and engineers. Fortran's robust support for mathematica
 l libraries and tools contributes to its enduring popularity, extending it
 s relevance to contemporary challenges in data analysis, AI, and machine l
 earning. The language excels in parallelism and distributed computing, sea
 mlessly integrating with modern supercomputers and clusters. Fortran's com
 patibility with GPUs positions it for GPU-accelerated computing, vital in 
 scientific workloads. As of August 2021, it ranks among the top fifteen pr
 ogramming languages. Modern Fortran, encompassing standards from 2003 to 2
 023, introduces features like object-oriented and parallel programming, en
 hancing interoperability with C. This minisymposium aims to explore the ev
 olution and relevance of Modern Fortran, with examples showcasing its inte
 gration with AI techniques to accelerate time-to-science.\n\nMPI and Moder
 n Fortran: Better Together\n\nThis talk will describe the right way to use
  MPI in Fortran.  The MPI Fortran 2008 bindings offer type safety and are 
 the only standard-compliant method for using MPI in Fortran.  I will show 
 how and why to use MPI_F08.  One challenge is imperfect implementations of
  MPI Fortran support.  I will show...\n\n\nJeff Hammond (NVIDIA Inc.)\n---
 ------------------\nParallel Runtime Interface for Fortran (PRIF): A Compi
 ler/Runtime-Library Agnostic Interface to Support the Parallel Features of
  Fortran 2023\n\nFortran 2023 natively supports single-program, multiple-d
 ata parallel programming with a partitioned global address space and colle
 ctive subroutines, synchronization, atomics, locks, and more. Each of the 
 four actively developed compilers that support Fortran’s parallel features
  uses its own p...\n\n\nKatherine Rasmussen and Damian Rouson (Lawrence Be
 rkeley National Laboratory)\n---------------------\nFortran's Role and Evo
 lution in Earth System Prediction: Integrating Machine Learning with Tradi
 tional Modeling Techniques\n\nNumerical weather, ocean, and climate (toget
 her, Earth system) prediction has been a humanity’s essential activity tow
 ard minimizing the loss of human lives and damage to infrastructure. It ha
 s also heavily relied on Fortran since its inception in the late 1950s. Fa
 st forward to 2024, virtuall...\n\n\nMilan Curcic (University of Miami)\n-
 --------------------\nType-Safe Generic Programming in Fortran\n\nWhen the
  Fortran language committee first collected requests for new language feat
 ures for what has now become the Fortran 2023 standard, support for generi
 c programming emerged as a top priority.  However, due to the anticipated 
 complexity, a dedicated committee subgroup was formed, and implementat...\
