Foundational Science for Biopreparedness and Response
This report is based on an SC Roundtable on Foundational Science for Biopreparedness and Response, which was held in March 2022 and included attendees from DOE’s national laboratories, industry, and other governmental agencies. The roundtable focused on understanding DOE’s unique role in addressing future biological crises, bringing together capabilities in the physical, computational, and biological sciences. Participants identified five priority research opportunities (PROs) and the specialized cross-cutting capabilities needed to support biopreparedness studies at DOE national user facilities. The identified PROs are inherently multidisciplinary, requiring coordination across ASCR, BER, and BES, and defined underlying science and technology advances needed for ensuring the nation’s future preparedness and response to biological crises.
Toward a Seamless Integration of Computing, Experimental, and Observational Science Facilities: A Blueprint to Accelerate Discovery
The Department of Energy, Office of Science operates world-leading facilities for experimental, observational, and computational science. A transformation of science is underway, with workloads at supercomputing facilities increasingly driven by this explosion of data from instruments and experimental facilities, as well as the accelerating use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) as a tool for scientific discovery. A seamless integration of computing, networking, instruments, and experimental facilities is required to support these emerging workloads and open up a new frontier of U.S. leadership in scientific discovery.
Market Research Study: Applications of ASCR HPC
The ASCR program has developed hundreds of software tools for high performance computing (HPC). DOE is interested in making its HPC software portfolio available to the public in order to maximize the value of what has been developed. This document, organized by the name of the ASCR-funded software, provides illustrations of how a sample of these tools have been used to advance industry applications. This report was funded by DOE through a contract for Phase 0 Outreach and Assistance for the Small Business Innovation Research/Small Business Technology Transfer Programs Office.
Envisioning Science in 2050
To explore future-focused questions that could impact the future of DOE, a Community of Interest (COI) on Future Scientific Methodologies, sponsored by the Office of Advanced Scientific Computing Research (ASCR), was held over three non-consecutive days in November 2020. The COI’s charge was to create a vision for how future computational fabrics might shape, and be shaped by, scientific and technological advances over the next 10 to 30 years.
Basic Research Needs for the Science of Scientific-Software Development and Use
In December 2021, ASCR convened a workshop on basic research needs for the Science of Scientific Software Development and Use (SSSDU). Workshop participants identified three priority research directions (PRDs) and three important crosscutting themes that center on the following overarching insight: software has become an essential part of modern science that impacts new discovery, policy, and technological development. To have full confidence in science delivered via software, we must improve the processes and tools that help us create and use it, and this enhancement requires a deep understanding of the diverse array of teams and individuals doing the work.
Roundtable Report: Parallel Discrete Event Simulation (PDES)
In September 2021, ASCR convened a roundtable to discuss computer-science research needs for Parallel Discrete Event Simulation (PDES). This report presents a sample of important applications with their inherent discrete event technology elements. Needs are outlined in core areas of parallel discrete event research as well as cross-cutting directions in computer-science research that positively impact scientific advancements across several important application areas. Priority research opportunities in advanced computing for PDES are identified.
Workshop on Reimagining Codesign
In March 2021, DOE’s Advanced Scientific Computing Research convened the Workshop on Reimagining Codesign. Codesign in High Performance Computing and Artificial Intelligence has been critical to the design and implementation of contemporary computer architectures. The process of codesign must be reimagined to be continuous, agile, and secure to reflect the new reality of rapid change in both workloads and architectures. The workshop was organized around discussions on eight topic areas, and from these, four priority research directions were identified.

A Quantum Path ForwardToday, many scientific experts recognize that building and scaling quantum-protected and enhanced communication networks are among the most important technological frontiers of the 21st century. The international research community perceives the construction of a first prototype global quantum network—the Quantum Internet—to be within reach over the next decade. In February 2020, the U.S Department of Energy (DOE)’s Office of Advanced Scientific Computing Research hosted the Quantum Internet Blueprint workshop to define a potential roadmap toward building the first nationwide quantum Internet. The workshop participants included representatives from DOE national laboratories, universities, industry, and other U.S. agencies with serious interests in quantum networking. The goal was to provide an outline of the essential research needed, detail any engineering and design barriers, and suggest a path forward to move from today’s limited local network experiments to a viable, secure quantum Internet. |

Data and Models: A Framework for Advancing AI in ScienceOn June 5, 2019, the Office of Science (SC) organized a one-day roundtable to focus on enhancing access to high-quality and fully traceable research data, models, and computing resources to increase the value of such resources for artificial intelligence (AI) research and development and the SC mission.1 In this report, we consider AI to be inclusive of, for example, machine learning (ML), deep learning (DL), neural networks (NN), computer vision, and natural language processing (NLP). We consider “data for AI” to mean the digital artifacts used to generate AI models and/or employed in combination with AI models during inference. In part, this roundtable was motivated by the recognition that a large portion of science data currently are not well suited for AI. |

DOE Network 2025: Network Research Problems and Challenges for DOE Scientists WorkshopGuided by (1) a desire for an overall million-fold increase in bulk data transfer rates over the next decade and (2) a need to support a more complex and diverse mix of traffic flows over current and future networks, the DOE Network 2025 workshop, held in Bethesda, Maryland, February 1–2, 2016, articulated an integrated R&D portfolio to achieve these goals. The workshop identified short-, medium-, and long-term challenges to guide a robust network research program within the DOE Advanced Scientific Computing Research program. Integrated and agile protocols and related technologies must be developed and tailored to these science environments in the short- and medium-terms by leveraging current backbone capacities and their future enhancements to multiple 100 Gbps and Tbps rates. New capabilities and services need to be integrated into these networks to support complex and dynamic network traffic flows. For more information:

DOE Workshop Report on Multiphysics Simulations: Challenges and Opportunities"Multiphysics Simulations: Challenges and Opportunities” considers multiphysics applications from algorithmic and architectural perspectives, where "algorithmic" includes both mathematical analysis and computational complexity and "architectural" includes both software and hardware environments. Many diverse multiphysics applications can be reduced, en route to their computational simulation, to a common algebraic coupling paradigm. Mathematical analysis of multiphysics coupling in this form is not always practical for realistic applications, but model problems representative of applications discussed herein can provide insight. A variety of software frameworks for multiphysics applications have been constructed and refined within disciplinary communities and executed on leading-edge computer systems. It examines several of these, exposes some commonalities among them, and attempts to extrapolate best practices to future systems. Get report at:... |
