  "This white paper was meant to frame the discussion at a recent
   Council on Competitiveness roundtable meeting on leveraging high
   performance computing (HPC) to increase the innovation and
   productivity of the U.S. manufacturing sector."

冒頭で紹介したレポートの出だし：
  "Problem: U.S. manufacturers must compete on innovation, not cost.
   High performance computing (HPC) modeling and simulation enables
   innovation by reducing design cycle time, development costs,
   certification costs, and re-engineering costs, and improving performance
   and efficiency while reducing waste.1 Greater use of HPC modeling
   and simulation by U.S. manufacturers is therefore critical to creating
   and keeping good, high-paying jobs, strengthening and growing the U.S.
   manufacturing base and addressing the 21st century problems facing
   the U.S. and the world. Structural barriers and obstacles are
   preventing this from happening."

  "Proposed Solution: A public-private partnership between leading
   manufacturers and the federal government that would overcome/mitigate
   the structural barriers and obstacles to broader and deeper use of
   HPC modeling and simulation by U.S. manufacturers."
