The hypothesis is that only via a continuum perspective one can intentionally specify desired continuum actions and effectively manage outcomes and systemic properties{\textemdash}adaptability and homeostasis, temporal constraints and deadlines{\textemdash}and elevate the discourse from device programming to intellectual goals and outcomes. Development of a framework for harnessing the computing continuum would catalyze new consumer services, business processes, social services, and scientific discovery. Realizing and implementing a continuum programming model requires balancing conflicting constraints and translating the high-level specification into a form suitable for execution on a unifying abstract machine model. In turn, the abstract machine must implement the mapping of specification demands to end-to-end resources.}, isbn = {9781119551713}, doi = {https://doi.org/10.1002/9781119551713.ch7}, author = {Pete Beckman and Jack Dongarra and Nicola Ferrier and Geoffrey Fox and Terry Moore and Dan Reed and Micah Beck} } @techreport {1398, title = {A Collection of Presentations from the BDEC2 Workshop in Kobe, Japan}, journal = {Innovative Computing Laboratory Technical Report}, number = {ICL-UT-19-09}, year = {2019}, month = {2019-02}, publisher = {University of Tennessee, Knoxville}, author = {Rosa M.
