Abstract

This special memorial issue pays tribute to James (Jim) A. Miller, a giant of combustion science who died in 2021, with a celebration of his enormous influence on the field. We were touched by the responses we received after we sent out the invitations for it. Jim inspired several generations of scientists, who viewed him as a mentor, a father figure, and a friend. Together with Nils Hansen and Peter Glarborg, we have written a detailed account on his life and work. Furthermore, it appeared in this journal shortly after his death; and so here we focus on the scientific areas he had interest in and influence on, and how they relate to the 34 papers in this issue. The topics of these papers span a variety of Jim's interests including nitrogen chemistry, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) chemistry, oxidation chemistry, energy transfer, prompt dissociations, and codes to facilitate combustion chemistry simulations.

Ontologies for Intelligent Data Science

As anyone even vaguely aware of current technology can tell you, machine learning (ML) and artificial intelligence (AI) have made exceptional breakthroughs in recent years. Generative artificial intelligence (GAI) emerged circa 2022 dominated by Large Language Models (LLMs) and generative tools for images emerged at about the same time.

Data Cards for Standardized Metadata Across DOE-Aligned Data Initiatives: Toward Transparent, Interoperable, and Governed Dataset Documentation

As data-intensive research, advanced computing, and artificial intelligence become increasingly central to scientific and operational workflows, the need for consistent, transparent, and machine-actionable documentation has grown correspondingly. Multiple DOE-aligned communities—including Office of Science, Genesis Mission, American Science Cloud (AmSC), National Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA) stewardship and governance, and related cross-laboratory collaborations—have independently developed metadata practices to support discovery, access, reuse, repository deposit, and compliance.

Verification and Validation of Performance with Dissemination of Best Practices in District Energy and CHP for Enhanced Resiliency, Energy Efficiency, and Cybersecurity

This report contains the results of the International District Energy Association’s work to analyze, validate, and verify performance data of existing district energy systems and identify industy best practices for the purpose of improving system reliability, resiliency, and efficiency, and to accellerate decarbonization. In addition to a technical evaluation of the surveyed systems and identification of a series of technical performance metrics, the report illustrates the accompanying operations and financial best practices employed by surveyed systems to fully serve their customer base. Additionally, the third chapter of the report describes the current landscape of cybersecurity threats and counteracting measures, and recommends a series of steps for effectively guarding highly networked district energy systems against cybersecurity attacks.
