    Whitepaper submitted to the 2017 DOE ASCR Applied Math Meeting. Primarily addresses question 4b "What applied mathematics research is needed for the era of supercomputing beyond the scaling limits of Moore's law? What existing elements in the DOE applied mathematics portfolio can be leveraged?" also touches on 2b "How can machine learning, artificial intelligence, and applied statistics contribute to our research space and/or open up new areas of research? Since these topics cross the divide of computer science and mathematics, on what aspects should the DOE Applied Mathematics portfolio focus?
