The performance implications of software design choices are often only incidentally mentioned in undergraduate courses and are rarely taught in a systematic way. Most undergraduate students lack awareness of the performance implications for designing and constructing software as well as the associated quantitative skills for planning for and analyzing typical performance issues. Cultivating Performance-Aware Software Engineers is an NSF-funded project to develop innovative and systematic approaches to enhance performance engineering skills in existing undergraduate curricula. This panel brings together prominent leaders in academia and industry to share perspectives and ideas and envision a roadmap for instilling essential SPE topics and practices into undergraduate education.
