Processing Full-Scale Square Kilometre Array Data on the Summit Supercomputer

Conference Wang, Ruonan ; Tobar, Rodrigo ; Dolensky, Markus ; ...

This work presents a workflow for simulating and processing the full-scale low-frequency telescope data of the Square Kilometre Array (SKA) Phase 1. The SKA project will enter the construction phase soon, and once completed, it will be the world’s largest radio telescope and one of the world’s largest data generators. The authors used Summit to mimic an endto-end SKA workflow, simulating a dataset of a typical 6 hour observation and then processing that dataset with an imaging pipeline. This workflow was deployed and run on 4,560 compute nodes, and used 27,360 GPUs to generate 2.6 PB of data. This wasmore »« less

Cosmology with the Square Kilometre Array by SKA-Japan

Journal Article Yamauchi, Daisuke ; Ichiki, Kiyotomo ; Kohri, Kazunori ; ... - Publications of the Astronomical Society of Japan

In the past several decades, the standard cosmological model has been established and its parameters have been measured to a high precision, while there are still many fundamental questions in cosmology; such as the physics in the very early universe, the origin of the cosmic acceleration, and the nature of dark matter. The forthcoming radio telescope, the Square Kilometre Array (SKA), which will be the world's largest, will be able to open a new frontier in cosmology and will be one of the most powerful tools for cosmology in the coming decade. The cosmological surveys conducted by the SKA wouldmore »« less

Square Kilometre Array Science Data Challenge 1: analysis and results

Journal Article Bonaldi, A. ; An, T. ; Brüggen, M. ; ... - Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society

ABSTRACT As the largest radio telescope in the world, the Square Kilometre Array (SKA) will lead the next generation of radio astronomy. The feats of engineering required to construct the telescope array will be matched only by the techniques developed to exploit the rich scientific value of the data. To drive forward the development of efficient and accurate analysis methods, we are designing a series of data challenges that will provide the scientific community with high-quality data sets for testing and evaluating new techniques. In this paper, we present a description and results from the first such Science Data Challengemore »« less

Developing And Scaling an OpenFOAM Model to Study Turbulent Flow in a HFIR Coolant Channel

Technical Report Popov, Emilian ; Mecham, Nicholas ; Edwardson, Carter

Improving the understanding of how computational fluid dynamics (CFD) direct numerical simulations (DNS) of flows in the High Flux Isotope Reactor (HFIR) perform when run in parallel using the high performance computing (HPC) platform Summit at the Oak Ridge Leadership Computing Facility (OLCF) is of particular importance to boost the computational tools used to support HFIR conversion to low enriched fuel (LEU). Evaluation of scaling performance was driven by the increasing importance of graphics processing unit (GPU) usage in HPC, which is becoming the standard for modern supercomputers such as Summit. The desired results are to obtain a strong positivemore »« less

Unveiling User Behavior on Summit Login Nodes as a User

Conference Wilkinson, Sean ; Maheshwari, Ketan ; Ferreira Da Silva, Rafael

We observe and analyze usage of the login nodes of the leadership class Summit supercomputer from the perspective of an ordinary user—not a system administrator—by periodically sampling user activities (job queues, running processes, etc.) for two full years (2020–2021). Our findings unveil key usage patterns that evidence misuse of the system, including gaming the policies, impairing I/O performance, and using login nodes as a sole computing resource. Our analysis highlights observed patterns for the execution of complex computations (workflows), which are key for processing large-scale applications.
