RISC-V for HPC: Where we are and where we need to go

Funded by the UK ExCALIBUR H&ES exascale programme, since early 2022 we have provided a RISC-V testbed for HPC to offer free access for scientific software developers to experiment with RISC-V for their workloads. Based upon our experiences of providing access to RISC-V for the HPC community, and our involvement with the RISC-V community at large, in this extended abstract we summarise the current state of RISC-V for HPC and consider the high priority areas that should be addressed to help drive adoption.
