  5. ORNL Neutron Scattering Facilities SNS and HFIR • SNS construction completed May 2006, user ops December 2007 • SNS has achieved ~ 500 kWatt sustained beam power • 4 SNS fully operational instruments • 3 SNS commissioning instruments • 4 SNS instruments will begin commissioning in FY2009. • HFIR cold source operational May 2007 (One of the brightest in the world) • 6 HFIR operational instruments (2 SANS on cold source) • 3 HFIR instruments commissioning

  6. SNS Instrument Schedule

  7. HFIR Instrument Schedule • Powder Diffractometer (HB-2A): Shutter opened and beam measured • US/Japan Triple Axis (CG-4C): Phase 1 completed • Instrument Development Beamline: Initial phase completed to provide prototyping capability for Neutron Imaging, SERGIS, and MEIZE.

  14. HFIR SANS Instruments In the User Program (General Purpose and Bio) Aggregation of polyglutamine fibrils Precipitate Distribution Nickel Superalloy

  15. Future • 2013 - Complete currently funded SNS instrument suite to 19 instruments • Imaging and Tomography • Zeemans: diffraction, reflectivity, SANS, and inelastic scattering • eV spectrometer • Second target station at SNS (anticipate CD0 by early 2009) • Add 4 more cold neutron instruments at HFIR • Second guide hall at HFIR neutrons.ornl.gov

  16. Instrument Commissioning Lessons –a computing perspective • Communications • Developing a common understanding • Identifying timelines and milestones • Providing needed information • Updating progress • Feedback mechanisms for problems and issues • Instrument teams depend upon knowledge and experience gained by the support groups • Persistence…Iteration…Refinement

  18. Computing User Statistics – FY08

  19. FY08 – Scientific Computing Statistics • Total Number of Unique Portal Users: 283 • Number of portal users added in FY08: 145 • Includes facility users and ORNL staff users • Number of portal visits: 7001 • Total number of monitored compute jobs run: 99,328 • Data Repositories: • Experiment Data: • HFIR – 2GB • IPNS – 515GB • LENS – 2GB • Lujan – 3GB • SNS – 800GB • Total: ~1.3TB • User Data (portal user home areas): 580GB • Cumulative Number of files cataloged (all file types): • SNS: 152,537 • HFIR: 67,489 • LENS: 1537 • Lujan: 722 • IPNS: 259,738 • Entire repository (all facilities and years): 482,023

  20. Science via the Web http://neutronsr.us Users Publications Documentation SW repository Web Portal View – Thin Client Future Web browser Desktop client Network Application Facilities Thick Client Access and authorization control Data portal Analysis portal Raw Data • SNS software • Check-in • Translation Service • Data Reduction Commercial Community code LENS Analysis Computers Raw Data Application Manager Reduced Data Data Management Database and flat file access protocols Computing Resources data Meta data SNS Local IPTS Analysis results SMArTS ORNL OIC

  21. NScD Integrated Systems Integrated Proposal Tracking System - IPTS Sample Management And Tracking System - SMArTS • Data Management • Live cataloging • ICAT & VFS Comprehensive Scheduling System • Data Acquisition • Experiment data • Systems linked via the Proposal ID • Can automatically connect registered users with their data • Need to have monitoring and admin tools

  22. [unofficial] Data Policy • We do not have an official data policy, but… • Data are stored by /facility/instrument/proposal • Proposal team members have access to their experiment data. • Instrument team members have access to all instrument experiment data • Administrative staff can access entire repository • The experiment PI “owns” the data

  23. Collaborators and Partners • DANSE • NSTG and TeraGrid • OSG • UTK-SQRL • UTK-CS • University of Wisconsin – Stout • Tech-X

  24. Cybersecurity Update • Network topologies • User authentication • User privilege levels • USB drives • CD/DVD drives • Phising email scams
