Domain Specific Language Support for Exascale Application Development

The University of Oregon has produced a Fortran parser based on an SDF (Syntax Definition Formalism) grammar. Primary partners in this effort were Rice University and Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory. The developed Fortran parser incorporates the full Fortran 2008 standard with extensions from the more recent document, TS 29113, “Further Interoperability of Fortran with C,” (to be included in the Fortran 2018 standard). In the final year of the project, the Fortran parser was updated to comply with the complete 2018 standard, as specified in the ISO/IEC document, JTC 1/SC 22/WG 5/N2146. The research explored in this project provided the expression of the Fortran grammar in SDF form for integration with the Rosebud DSL framework developed by Rice University. The Rosebud framework is a cohesive interface allowing modular DSL plugins to be developed independently and then distributed and combined in HPC applications. These plugins implement a form of generalized DSL which includes both concrete languages used to write application source code and abstract languages used within the compilation process. ROSE’s predefined DSL Building Blocks (for example the Fortran base language) are represented as abstract language plugins and DSL developers can use Rosebud to construct additional building blocks in the same way.

Domain Specific Language for Exascale

The focus of this project was the development of the infrastructure supporting DSLs. The goal is that DSLs can be built easily and economically to address the requirements of future HPC software development on Exascale architectures. We proposed to use a novel integrated approach to support the lifecycle of DSL development and involve all major players including HPC programmers, domain algorithm experts, DSL designers, implementation experts. The resulting software artifacts and processes will include components supporting application migration, DSL specifications, DSL language parsing, compiler construction, refinement and transformation, performance analysis, runtime support, as well as parameterizing abstract extreme-scale machines.

Evolving HPC and Application Design Toward a Coupled Data Assimilation System at NASA Suitable for Emerging Exascale Platforms

The prediction capabilities of global models have continuously evolved from the traditional medium-range global weather prediction application to span scales in support of hourly prediction of convective scale storms to seasonal Earth system prediction. This evolution has increased the demands on the system infrastructure design and workflow to achieve the required performance on modern high-performance computing (HPC) platforms. The planned evolution of the Goddard Earth Observing System (GEOS) modeling and assimilation system will stress the capabilities of conventional HPC overwhelming the available compute cycles at the NASA Center for Climate Simulation (NCCS) at the NASA Goddard Space Flight Center in the coming 5-10 years. This has led to the re-design of key elements of the assimilation and modeling systems to achieve significant gains in performance on anticipated Exacale platforms. The transition of the assimilation system to the Joint Effort for Data assimilation Integration (JEDI) framework has positioned GEOS to exploit new efficient algorithms for data assimilation (DA) in a fully-coupled Earth system context. The suitability of the GEOS model to leverage a domain specific language (DSL) approach and artificial intelligence (AI) is being explored to accelerate computational performance and data exchange efficiency of the coupled Earth system model. The storage and processing of large data volumes produced by these advance systems is being redesigned with a data-centric cloud-based approach. We will highlight the recent efforts in these areas and emphasize the demand for further development and re-design to achieve the science objectives in support of NASA's Earth system modeling and assimilation missions.
