Proceedings of the First PhD Symposium on Sustainable Ultrascale Computing Systems (NESUS PhD 2016) Timisoara, Romania. February 8-11, 2016.The PhD Symposium was a very good opportunity for the young researchers to share information and knowledge, to
present their current research, and to discuss topics with other students in order to look for synergies and common research
topics. The idea was very successful and the assessment made by the PhD Student was very good. It also helped to
achieve one of the major goals of the NESUS Action: to establish an open European research network targeting sustainable
solutions for ultrascale computing aiming at cross fertilization among HPC, large scale distributed systems, and big
data management, training, contributing to glue disparate researchers working across different areas and provide a meeting
ground for researchers in these separate areas to exchange ideas, to identify synergies, and to pursue common activities in
research topics such as sustainable software solutions (applications and system software stack), data management, energy
efficiency, and resilience.European Cooperation in Science and Technology. COS
