Supercomputing: An Industry in Need of a Revolution « Bartosz Milewski's Programming Cafe: " talked to a CS student who was demonstrating his summer work at the booth belonging to one of the large national labs. It was a project to improve Monte Carlo simulations of some physical processes. It was done, unsurprisingly, using MPI and OpenMP. I asked him what the exciting part of the job was. It was the learning of the Monte Carlo method. The rest was the tedium of combining barely compatible clunky programming paradigms into a workable program."
