Abstract

The ASCAC Subcommittee on Synergistic Challenges in Data-Intensive Science and Exascale Computing has reviewed current practice and future plans in multiple science domains in the context of the challenges facing both Big Data and the Exascale Computing. challenges. The review drew from public presentations, workshop reports and expert testimony. Data-intensive research activities are increasing in all domains of science, and exascale computing is a key enabler of these activities. We briefly summarize below the key findings and recommendations from this report from the perspective of identifying investments that are most likely to positively impact both data-intensive science goals and exascale computing goals.

DOE Advanced Scientific Computing Advisory Subcommittee (ASCAC) Report: Top Ten Exascale Research Challenges

Program Document Lucas, Robert; Ang, James; Bergman, Keren; ...

Exascale computing systems are essential for the scientific fields that will transform the 21st century global economy, including energy, biotechnology, nanotechnology, and materials science. Progress in these fields is predicated on the ability to perform advanced scientific and engineering simulations, and analyze the deluge of data. On July 29, 2013, ASCAC was charged by Patricia Dehmer, the Acting Director of the Office of Science, to assemble a subcommittee to provide advice on exascale computing. This subcommittee was directed to return a list of no more than ten technical approaches (hardware and software) that will enable the development of a systemmore »« less

Future High Performance Computing Capabilities: Summary Report of the Advanced Scientific Computing Advisory Committee (ASCAC) Subcommittee

Technical Report Bergman, Keren; Conte, Tom; Gara, Al; ...

The ASCAC Subcommittee on Future High Performance Computing (HPC) Capabilities has reviewed opportunities and challenges related to the most promising technologies that are currently planned for the post-exascale (2020's) and post-Moore (2030's and beyond) timeframes. We briefly summarize in this report the key findings and recommendations from this review, from the perspective of planning and research directions that need to be given priority to prepare for the very significant challenges that await us in the post-Moore computing era. An overarching concern that emerged from the subcommittee's deliberations is that DOE has lost considerable momentum in funding and sustaining a researchmore »« less

DOE Advanced Scientific Computing Advisory Committee (ASCAC) Report: Exascale Computing Initiative Review

Program Document Reed, Daniel; Berzins, Martin; Pennington, Robert; ...

On November 19, 2014, the Advanced Scientific Computing Advisory Committee (ASCAC) was charged with reviewing the Department of Energy’s conceptual design for the Exascale Computing Initiative (ECI). In particular, this included assessing whether there are significant gaps in the ECI plan or areas that need to be given priority or extra management attention. Given the breadth and depth of previous reviews of the technical challenges inherent in exascale system design and deployment, the subcommittee focused its assessment on organizational and management issues, considering technical issues only as they informed organizational or management priorities and structures. This report presents the observationsmore »« less

DOE Advanced Scientific Advisory Committee (ASCAC): Workforce Subcommittee Letter

Program Document Chapman, Barbara; Calandra, Henri; Crivelli, Silvia; ...

Simulation and computing are essential to much of the research conducted at the DOE national laboratories. Experts in the ASCR ¬relevant Computing Sciences, which encompass a range of disciplines including Computer Science, Applied Mathematics, Statistics and domain Computational Sciences, are an essential element of the workforce in nearly all of the DOE national laboratories. This report seeks to identify the gaps and challenges facing DOE with respect to this workforce. This letter is ASCAC’s response to the charge of February 19, 2014 to identify disciplines in which significantly greater emphasis in workforce training at the graduate or postdoctoral levels ismore »« less
