Trilinos Background
The Trilinos Project is an effort to develop algorithms and enabling technologies within an object-oriented software framework for the solution of large-scale, complex multi-physics engineering and scientific problems. A unique design feature of Trilinos is its focus on packages. Full details of Trilinos and links to package websites can be found at the Trilinos home page.
Meeting Overview
TUG 2021 will be virtually hosted by Sandia National Labs, and the goal of the annual meeting is to facilitate communication between Trilinos users, clients and developers.

Keynote
Title: HPC Software Platform Trends: The Evolution of Trilinos from 2001 to 2026
Mike Heroux
Abstract: The Trilinos Project started in 2001 as a software platform to support the collaborative development of inter-dependent scientific libraries using a shared software and communications infrastructure. In its early days, Trilinos used CVS, Bugzilla, Mailman, and Autotools to support developers and users. The Trilinos community could count on file system backups, training, mail lists for questions and announcements, and more. Trilinos also provided a "New Package" package as a template for rapid start-up of new packages, or integration of existing external packages.
Since those early days, the broader software community has increasingly provided new and improved tools and processes that superseded what Trilinos initially provided, and the Trilinos Project has evolved to adjust. More change and opportunities are on the horizon.
In this presentation, we discuss the history of scientific software platforms, illustrated through the evolution of Trilinos. We also use this history and current trends to project some of the next possibilities for Trilinos to continue adapting and providing value to its stakeholder communities.
