%X This presentation gives an overview of the challenges
   facing scientific software developers in exploiting current
   and upcoming massively parallel HPC facilities. The
   different levels of parallelism available in the
   architectures will be discussed, together with their impact
   for software design and what the trend is for the future.
   The discussion will be illustrated with examples from the
   two national facilities currently hosted at EPCC: HECToR (a
   Cray XE6) and the DiRAC IBM BlueGene/Q.
