  1. XSEDE Technology Insertion Service Identifying and Evaluating the Next Generation of Cyberinfrastructure Software for Science Tim Cockerill Associate Project Director

  2. Bridging CI Software Technologies to XSEDE NSF-funded and other CI software technologies XSEDE TIS XSEDE

  3. What is XSEDE? • XSEDE is the follow-on to TeraGrid and is the virtual organization of 17 institutions/120 FTE providing services and support for the users of NSF-OCI’s computational science resources. • CMS – coordination and management services • architecture, software integration, systems engineering, operations, allocations, project mgmt • ECSS – extended collaborative support services • TEOS – training, education, and outreach services • 5-year award started July 1, 2011

  4. XSEDE supporting scientific software development • Startup allocations up to 200,000 hours, • Easy access - submit abstract and CV • Extended Collaborative Support • Programmers/domain scientists to assist you: 40 FTE • Port, optimize, parallelize your code • Community Code evaluation and support • Training and Education • For you – asynchronous online and live events • By you – assist with developing and advertising your training/education

  5. XSEDE-TIS Technology Insertion Service • Separate award from XSEDE, 5 years, started July 1, 2010. • Mission: to continuously track, evaluate, and recommend advanced CI technologies to XSEDE and the broader HPC community • Five activities • XTED: XSEDE Technology Evaluation Database • Technology Evaluation Process • Technology Evaluation Test-bed • Technology Insertion Support • Community Satisfaction and Impact Evaluation

  6. XSEDE Architecture is User-Driven

  7. What is XTED? • XSEDE Technology Database (XTED) to identify, track, compare, collect user feedback on, and help the XSEDE team make decisions on what technologies would have the most impact. • XTED is open for CI Developers to enter technologies, update that information, respond to user comments and requests, and identify new development opportunities. • XTED enables Users to request features of XSEDE in general and of specific technologies, and to influence decisions for XSEDE staff in evaluating technologies. • XTED enables XSEDE Staff to communicate with users and CI developers to make decisions on projects to evaluate. XTED is a unique resource for advancing large-scale open science cyberinfrastructure--in XSEDE and beyond.

  8. Technology Evaluation Process • Initial Planning • Identify team lead and familiarize with product • Test Plan • Test developer specifications vs the expected use in the XSEDE environment • Testing • Local testbeds, Futuregrid, XSEDE • Final Report • Feedback to developer and publish to XTED

  9. Technology Insertion Support Documentation for installation, configuration, and testing for XSEDE production environment developed from evaluation process Provides support to XSEDE software integration team for technologies added to the XSEDE services

  10. How Can You Participate? • Visit TIS project at http://tis.xsede.org and create an account. • Enter new technologies • Enter request into XTED for capabilities • Enter requests for new features of technologies • Make comments on existing entries

  11. Summary XSEDE TIS project provides dedicated expertise to identifying, evaluating, and recommending/installing new technology capabilities into XSEDE XTED will be the primary interface for users and for CI technology developers to enter technology XTED is in production at http://tis.xsede.org

  12. Bridging CI Software Technologies to XSEDE NSF-funded and other CI software technologies XSEDE TIS XSEDE
