The ECP Proxy App Team released version 2.0 of the ECP Proxy App suite on September 28, 2018. The new version includes 5 new proxies and adds or improves coverage in several areas, most notably graph analytics and communication patterns. Proxy apps are used heavily by the PathForward projects, and several of the new proxies are being eagerly adopted. Over the last year we have observed vendors are becoming more sophisticated in their use of proxy apps. However, there is still progress to be made, especially in the area of ensuring that representative problem specifications are used. The Proxy App Team is currently working on such specifications and will be publishing them on our website in the near future.
