Improving Performance of M-to-N Processing and Data Redistribution in In Transit Analysis and Visualization

In an in transit setting, a parallel data producer, such as a numerical simulation, runs on one set of ranks M, while a data consumer, such as a parallel visualization application, runs on a different set of ranks N. One of the central challenges in this in transit setting is to determine the mapping of data from the set of M producer ranks to the set of N consumer ranks. This is a challenging problem for several reasons, such as the producer and consumer codes potentially having different scaling characteristics and different data models. The resulting mapping from M to N ranks can have a significant impact on aggregate application performance. In this work, we present an approach for performing this M-to-N mapping in a way that has broad applicability across a diversity of data producer and consumer applications. We evaluate its design and performance with a study that runs at high concurrency on a modern HPC platform. By leveraging design characteristics, which facilitate an “intelligent” mapping from M-to-N, we observe significant performance gains are possible in terms of several different metrics, including time-to-solution and amount of data moved.

Summary of a Workshop on Integrating Energy Equity into Power System Planning and Operation

On November 29 and 30, 2023, the Energy Systems Integration Group convened a one-and-a-half-day workshop in Arlington, Virginia, to improve knowledge and practices for integrating energy equity considerations into power system planning and operation. Workshop participants were invited to discuss approaches for integrating energy equity aspects into models and tools and to explore possible pathways for enhanced technical practices. Participants included utility planning and modeling practitioners, social science and energy justice academics, representatives from energy and environmental justice nongovernmental organizations, non-profits, consumer advocates, and representatives from the U.S. Department of Energy, national labs, and other government agencies. This report summarizes the discussion points and outcomes of the workshop, which prioritized the technical aspects of incorporating the challenges and solutions identified by electricity-futures stakeholders and communities. These technical activities include the fundamental grid structure and hardware, detailed modeling approaches that benchmark energy system performance and justify future investments, and engineering designs and limitations for potential solutions to meet energy equity goals in communities.

ICRF wave propagation and absorption modelling via machine learning

A surrogate model of the wave absorption in the ion cyclotron range of frequencies is presented. The model is trained to capture the physics of 1D electron and ion power absorption profiles for both the high harmonic fast wave scheme in NSTX, and the minority heating scheme in WEST. The surrogate models, based on both the random forest regressor and the multilayer perceptron algorithms, reduce inference time of 1D power absorption profiles from 1-5 minutes required by TORIC to ∼50 µs with high accuracy (i.e. R2 = 0.71−0.96).

Recommendations for Best Practices for Data Preservation and Open Science in HEP

These recommendations are the result of reflections by scientists and experts who are, or have been, involved in the preservation of high-energy physics data. The work has been done under the umbrella of the Data Lifecycle panel of the International Committee of Future Accelerators (ICFA), drawing on the expertise of a wide range of stakeholders. A key indicator of success in the data preservation efforts is the long-term usability of the data. Experience shows that achieving this requires providing a rich set of information in various forms, which can only be effectively collected and preserved during the period of active data use. The recommendations are intended to be actionable by the indicated actors and specific to the particle physics domain. They cover a wide range of actions, many of which are interdependent. These dependencies are indicated within the recommendations and can be used as a road map to guide implementation efforts. These recommendations are best accessed and viewed through the web application, see https://icfa-data-best-practices.app.cern.ch/
