The computational power of HPC is beyond our comprehension when we hear that 5 quadrillion computations can happen in a matter of seconds, or that machine learning is changing the way everything works. But none of that happens in a vacuum, and the teams behind the scenes—the developers of the hardware, the operating systems, the data transfer protocols, and the applications themselves—are the unsung heroes of a world where faster is better and you'd better hope there's no bug in the software or the hardware to slow you down. HPC is most successful when all these aspects work together seamlessly. The stories that follow are a tribute to the hardworking teams behind the scenes.

Blue noise sampling has proved useful for many graphics applications, but remains underexplored in high-dimensional spaces due to the difficulty of generating distributions and proving properties about them. We present a blue noise sampling method with good quality and performance across different dimensions. The method, spoke-dart sampling, shoots rays from prior samples and selects samples from these rays. It combines the advantages of two major high-dimensional sampling methods: the locality of advancing front with the dimensionality-reduction of hyperplanes, specifically line sampling. We prove that the output sampling is saturated with high probability, with bounds on distances between pairs of samples and between any domain point and its nearest sample. We demonstrate spoke-dart applications for approximate Delaunay graph construction, global optimization, and robotic motion planning. Both the blue-noise quality of the output distribution and the adaptability of the intermediate processes of our method are useful in these applications.
