Empowering Scientific Innovation Through An Integrated Research Infrastructure: The Role of the Advanced Computing Ecosystem

As the landscape of computational science evolves, the Department of Energy (DOE) is reimagining the roles of its large-scale computing facilities to meet emerging research challenges. The Integrated Research Infrastructure (IRI) program aims to transform how experiments are designed, conducted, and shared, with significant impacts on all stakeholders. In response, the Oak Ridge Leadership Computing Facility (OLCF) has established the Advanced Computing Ecosystem (ACE), a strategic framework to prepare its hardware, software, and experimental capabilities for the IRI era. ACE focuses on integrating novel compute environments, orchestrating advanced workflows, and developing foundational technologies, ensuring a seamless transition to IRI while accelerating scientific discovery. This paper outlines ACE's role in advancing OLCF's mission and its impact on the future of computational science.

A High-level Design for Bidirectional Data Streaming to High-Performance Computing Systems from External Science Facilities

Cutting-edge science is increasingly data-driven due to the emergence of scientific machine learning models that can guide scientists toward fruitful areas of exploration. Experimental science facilities such as light and neutron sources, particle colliders, and radio astronomy telescopes are also producing raw measurement data at rates that exceed available data storage and computing capacity at those facilities. As a result, scientific workflows are being developed that concurrently couple experiments at science facilities with high-performance computing (HPC) facilities to enable analysis of experimental data while the experiment is ongoing, and where analysis results are potentially fed back to the experiment for use in experimental control and/or steering in a time-sensitive manner. Our goal is to design, prototype, and deploy a new capability for the Oak Ridge Leadership Computing Facility (OLCF) that enables such workflows through support for bidirectional, memory-based streaming of data from external experiments into and out of OLCF HPC systems. This high-level design document describes the related work and motivating use cases that inform our understanding of the technical requirements for this capability, and describes a proposed architectural solution that meets these requirements and our plans for demonstrating the capability.
