 This latest release includes a constraint handling in CVODE/CVODES, hybrid MPI/CUDA support, and a number of bug fixes and build system updates. In addition, the SUNDIALS team has put out a development release, v4.0.0-dev.2, which  includes encapsulated nonlinear solvers for all time integrators, streamlining of the linear solver interfaces in CVODE, ARKode, IDA, and KINSOL, and a reorganization of ARKode to allow for more time stepping options. The development release is another step toward a larger major release scheduled for the end of 2018. The full 4.0.0 release will also include the streamlined linear solver interfaces for CVODES and IDAS as well as a two-rate explicit/explicit integrator.

 One recurring theme was inner source, the use of open source software development best practices and the establishment of an open-source-like culture within organizations. With this practice the organization may still develop proprietary software, but internally opens up its development.

 Like much of LLNL’s HPC performance improvement software, Unify is open source. The first Unify file system, [UnifyCR](https://github.com/LLNL/UnifyCR) (for checkpoint/restart workloads), is already available on GitHub. The team is working on another file system in the Unify “family” designed for machine learning workloads, in which large data sets need to be distributed quickly. Additional Unify file systems are in development.
