Exploring the Role of LLMs in HPC Programming: A Survey

The survey reviews how Large Language Models (LLMs) are being used in High‑Performance Computing (HPC) programming, covering code generation, parallelization, frameworks, evaluation, and broader challenges. It finds that general‑purpose LLMs perform adequately on serial and OpenMP‑style tasks but struggle with distributed MPI workloads, while domain‑specialized models achieve higher accuracy yet are limited in scope and evaluation. The authors argue that LLMs will not replace HPC experts soon but can act as powerful collaborators, provided richer datasets, integration with performance tools, rigorous evaluation, and governance are developed.

OptSkills: Learning Generalizable Optimization Skills from Problem Archetypes via Cluster-Based Distillation

OptSkills is an archetype‑centric agent that learns and reasons about optimization problems using large language models. It clusters problems by underlying archetypes, explores diverse modeling and solver configurations within each cluster, and distills successful trajectories into reusable workflow‑level skills. The system achieves state‑of‑the‑art accuracy on multiple datasets, outperforming prior methods on challenging benchmarks such as MIPLIB‑NL and OOD NLCO.
