DOE2000 Directions - M2 group • Members • Larry Rahn, SNL Larry Allard, ORNL • George Chin, PNNL Terry Disz, ANL • Debbie Gracio, PNNL Jim Kohl, ORNL • Dan Quinlan, LLNL John Reynders, LANL • Bill Saphir, LBNL Steve Wright, ANL
DOE2000 Directions - M2 group • Process • First we discussed (for 8 hours...) • Program structure, technical goals • Challenges • Current program issues • DOE 2000 added value • Generally exchanged information, philosophies • Then we finally answered A, B, & C
High-level priorities • Promote interoperability/component specifications (e.g., CCA) • Preserve unique DOE2k approach to complement SSI • Identify new opportunities to exploit our approach to software development
Priorities for program structure • Projects must be well defined • Finite-time development cycle • Follow-on funding for maintenance of successful projects • Develop process for distributing DOE software • Open source (www.opensource.org/osd.html) • Uniform practice for DOE2k
DOE 2k project selection criteria • Enhance software tools to be: • Interoperable • Portable • Reusable • Multi-application • Highly leveragable • High performance on parallel architecture
Priorities for collaboratory projects • Close interaction of pilot projects with tool development to address needs • Electronic notebook critical component • Pilots need to incorporate more tools • New mechanisms for pilot-tool collab. • Document pilot tool integration to guide development of new collaboratories
New application opportunities - 1 • Grid generation tools • AMR • Wide area group collaboration • Collaborative Visualization • Collaborative Problem Solving Environments • Data management and mining
New application opportunities -2 • New numerical methods -> performance • Uncertainty analysis- • Stochastic optimization, • Sensitivity analysis, automatic diff. • Also possible • Visualization tools • Eigen solvers
Coordinating with other agencies • Technical activities • NASA Ames - • Grid generation tools • Astrobiology Inst. -> Collabative tool devel. • NASA, DARPA, NSF - • Post Doc(ument) for collaborative document generation NASA • PACI partners -Grids, integration frameworks • Education and lab involvement
Coordinating with other agencies • Technical activities (cont’d) • NIH - Telemicroscopy project • NSF - Meta NEOS (Globus, optimization) • NSF - SSI program in Human-Comp. Inter. • Collaboration mechanisms • Shared tools (NASA Grid from CAD) • Site visits for awareness • PACI partners alliance meetings
