This project developed the LAPIS compiler framework, built on the Multilevel Intermediate Representation (MLIR), to optimize sparse linear algebra operations and support performance portability across diverse architectures. The main innovation of LAPIS is the Kokkos dialect, which allows for lowering codes from a high productivity language to different architectures in an elegant way. The dialect also allows the conversion of lower-level MLIR code to C++ Kokkos code, facilitating the integration of scientific machine learning (SciML) models into applications. To extend LAPIS for distributed memory architectures, a new partition dialect was created to manage the distribution of sparse tensors and express communication patterns for sparse linear algebra operations. This dialect also supports the distributed execution of operators and includes algorithmic optimizations to minimize communication to improve performance. The project also demonstrates that MLIR can enable effective linear algebra-level optimizations, improving performance on different GPUs for both sparse and dense linear algebra kernels. Key applications of LAPIS include sparse linear algebra and graph kernels, TenSQL, a relational database management solution built on GraphBLAS, and the development of subgraph isomorphism and monomorphism kernels, showcasing performance portability. In summary, the LAPIS framework supports productivity, performance, portability, and distributed memory execution, while also enabling linear algebra-level optimizations that are challenging in traditional programming languages, with successful applications ranging from simple sparse linear algebra to complex graph kernels.
This report assembles comprehensive data from the Sirius-1 experiment conducted by Idaho National Laboratory in collaboration with the National Aeronautics and Space Administration. The primary goal is to provide a robust data set that external users can utilize for the validation of computational methods for transient multiphysics simulations. By compiling all relevant data, including experiment design calculations, detailed engineering drawings for the experiment and data from reactor and fuel specimen measurement, this report is intended to serves as a reference for researchers and engineers working on the development and validation of computational models for transient nuclear behavior.
Compilation of papers presented at nasa conference on testing, design, performance, and improvements of vtol and v/stol aircraft
Compilation and evaluation of diffusivity and viscosity data on gas and liquid turbulent flow systems
Available data is compiled on the solubilities of various metals in liquid zinc. The temperature dependence of the solubility data is expressed using the empirical straight line relationship existing between the logarithm of the solubility and the reciprocal of the absolute temperature.
Detection sensitivities of the chemical elements following thermal-neutron activation have been compiled from the available experimental cross sections and nuclear properties and presented in a concise and usable form. The report also includes the equations and nuclear parameters used in the calculations.

Compilation of wind-tunnel heat-transfer measurements on afterbody of Mercury capsule reentry configuration
The nine papers included in this volume were presented by NASA research staff members at the National Meeting on the Future of Manned Military Aircraft sponsored by the Institute of the Aeronautical Sciences and held in San Diego, Calif., from August 1 to August 3, 1960. Because, together, they provide a comprehensive summary of research by NASA in the areas covered, they have been compiled in this publication for the information of personnel concerned with the design and procurement of manned military aircraft.
