CSRI Summer Proceedings 2021

The Computer Science Research Institute (CSRI) brings university faculty and students to Sandia National Laboratories for focused collaborative research on Department of Energy (DOE) computer and computational science problems. The institute provides an opportunity for university researches to learn about problems in computer and computational science at DOE laboratories, and help transfer results of their research to programs at the labs. Some specific CSRI research interest areas are: scalable solvers, optimization, algebraic preconditioners, graph-based, discrete, and combinatorial algorithms, uncertainty estimation, validation and verification methods, mesh generation, dynamic load-balancing, virus and other malicious-code defense, visualization, scalable cluster computers, beyond Moore’s Law computing, exascale computing tools and application design, reduced order and multiscale modeling, parallel input/output, and theoretical computer science. The CSRI Summer Program is organized by CSRI and includes a weekly seminar series and the publication of a summer proceedings.

Energy Storage Seminar for Western State Regulatory Commission Staff (Report on Proceedings)

On November 6, 2017, the U.S. Department of Energy (DoE) sponsored an Energy Storage Seminar for Western State Regulatory Commission Staff in Salt Lake City. The summit took place at the offices of the Western Electric Coordination Council, with training provided by staff from DoE, Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL), and Sandia National Laboratories (SNL). Staff from regulatory commissions in 10 western states attended. The seminar was designed with three key purposes in mind: to facilitate a discussion among regulatory staff about the challenges they face in current regulatory proceedings involving energy storage, to provide training to establish a baseline understanding of current energy storage technology and economics, and to solicit feedback from program participants about how future DoE-funded research and training on the topic of energy storage can be designed to meet state needs. Feedback suggests that future seminars and Energy Storage Program research should be focused on developing and sharing practical information about the impacts of energy storage on regulatory processes, that networking activities are highly valued by regulatory staff, and that program stakeholders want to be engaged in planning future events and research efforts.

Bioimaging Science Program Principal Investigator Meetings Proceedings (2021)

As part of the 2021 Biological Systems Science Division (BSSD) Principal Investigator (PI) Meeting, the Bioimaging Science program (BSP), within BSSD's Biomolecular Characterization and Imaging Science portfolio, held its annual PI meeting virtually February 22–23. BSP's mission is to understand the translation of genomic information into the mechanisms that power living cells, communities of cells, and whole organisms. The goal of BSP is to develop new imaging and measurement technologies to visualize the spatial and temporal relationships of key metabolic processes governing phenotypic expression in plants and microbes. BSP convenes annual PI meetings to bring together its contributing investigators to review progress and current state-of-the-art bioimaging research. Holding the BSP meeting as part of the broader BSSD PI meeting allowed researchers to interact with the extended Genomic Science program community. This convergence provided a platform for networking and exchange of ideas, helping to forge new multidisciplinary collaborations among investigators from the two sister programs. An important highlight of the BSP meeting was the keynote presentation “Enhancing Fluorescence Microscopy with Computation” by Dr. Hari Shroff of the NIH National Institute of Biomedical Imaging and Bioengineering. All the BSP PIs made presentations describing their research focus and progress, and these were followed by roundtable discussions of each project. The meeting’s proceedings provide an outline of the program’s current state and potential future directions and opportunities.

Proceedings of the Workshop for Applied Nuclear Data Activities WANDA 2022

On February 28 – March 4, 2022, the Nuclear Data Interagency Working Group (NDIAWG) hosted the 5-day virtual Workshop for Applied Nuclear Data (WANDA2022) to facilitate interagency collaboration on nuclear data for applications. This year’s focus was nuclear data for space applications, but also included photon reactions and transport, reactions on unstable nuclei, and data adjustment topics. The annual WANDA workshops are planned by the Nuclear Data Working Group (NDWG) with the goal of assembling users and producers of nuclear data to provide input to identify and prioritize nuclear data needs and to suggest solutions to address those needs. The workshop consisted of talks by agency program managers, six topic focused road mapping sessions and a review of NDIAWG-funded projects. More than 350 attendees represented national laboratories, universities, and federal agencies, as well as international organizations and industry. The proceedings presented herein summarize the workshop’s content, highlight important outcomes, and document attendees’ recommendations.

Proceedings of the 13 th US/German Workshop on Salt Repository Research, Design, and Operation

This report summarizes the proceedings of the 13 th US/German Workshop on Salt Repository Research, Design, and Operation hosted by Sandia National Laboratories on June 20-23, 2023, in Santa Fe, New Mexico, USA. Over 60 participants attended, representing Germany, United States, the Netherlands, Australia, and the United Kingdom, along with the IAEA. The purpose of the US/German Workshop is to foster in-person collaboration and dialogue amongst salt repository researchers and nuclear waste disposal implementers across international organizations. The workshop included five sessions of topical presentations and two breakout sessions to promote additional discussion on compelling topics.

Review of Literature and Utility Commission Proceedings Relevant to Integrated System Planning: Annotated Bibliography Prepared to Support the Washington Utilities and Transportation Commission

In 2024 the Washington State Legislature passed the Decarbonization Act for Large Combination Utilities (Engrossed Substitute House Bill 1589 – the Act). The Act requires a large combination electric and gas utility to conduct integrated system planning supporting electrification and gas system decarbonization, including a reduction in the gas rate base. The utility is required to submit the first integrated system plan (ISP) by January 1, 2027. The requirements are to be developed and adopted by the Washington Utilities and Transportation Commission (UTC) by July 1, 2025. In October 2024 Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) and Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (LBNL) began providing technical assistance to the UTC to support the ISP rulemaking. PNNL and LBNL have prepared this annotated bibliography of research and reports, and state examples of coordinated gas and electric planning, future of gas, and future of heat proceedings in other U.S. States and one Canadian Province. The items described here have been selected by the authors for their potential relevance to the UTC’s integrated system planning rule discussions.

Editorial: Proceedings of ICPSBBB 2018 - 2nd International Conference on Plant Synthetic Biology, Bioengineering and Biotechnology

Plant synthetic biology combines engineering principles with plant biology toward the design, construction, and testing of plants with new traits (Liu and Stewart, 2015). Synthetic biology applies engineering principles, using defined genetic parts with the aim of achieving predictable outcomes. The field aims at providing fuels, pharmaceuticals, bioactive metabolites and increased crop yield. Synthetic biology is increasingly forming a framework in genetic transformation of plants allowing us to improve traits and crop performance. The conference on Plant Synthetic Biology, Bioengineering, and Biotechnology covers broad aspects of plant synthetic biology, ranging from tools to the design of predictable functions and precision genome editing, to re-designed photosynthesis, plant bioengineering techniques, and rational design of novel plant traits. This Frontiers in Plant Science virtual issue on the “Research Topic Proceedings of ICPSBBB 2018 - 2nd International Conference on Plant Synthetic Biology, Bioengineering and Biotechnology” consists of 8 publications, including four reviews and four original research articles, which fall into the following general topics: quantitative and genetic parts, evolution, expression of transgenes and epigenetic changes, engineering of stress tolerance and bioproduction.
