This dataset provides a curated collection of initial crystal structure prototypes for the exa-AMD framework, serving as templates for generating hypothetical candidates in multinary materials discovery through elemental substitution and scaling. It includes 36553 ternary and 5254 quaternary unique structures sourced from public databases such as Materials Project, GNoME, OQMD, AFLOW, and NovoMag, formatted in CIF.
Critical minerals (CM) such as rare earth elements (REE+) and Lithium (Li) are essential to technological innovation, energy transitions, global economic and defense security, necessitating the search for unconventional resources and efficient recovery methods to avert supply chain disruptions. Here, this study evaluates coal-associated sediments (underclay and roof rock) and wastes from the Pennsylvanian Pottsville Formation of the Southern Appalachian Basin (SAB) as potential feedstocks for CM recovery. A total of 34 samples (15 underclays, 12 roof rocks, 5 Acid Mine Drainage (AMD) sludges, and 2 coal mining wastes) were characterized using XRD, XRF, ICP-MS, and μ-XRF analytical methods. The REE+ and Li concentrations of these materials ranged from 46.8 to 334.4 ppm and from 11.1 to 519 ppm, respectively, with one underclay sample (Hendrix 3456) yielding the highest values for both. Bulk mineralogy for all samples was dominated by aluminosilicate clay phases, particularly illite and kaolinite. All samples exhibited REY def, rel% values >26% and C outl indices that ranged from 0.69 to 0.94, classifying their REE ore potential as Category II (Promising) as defined by Seredin and Dai (2012). Extractability tests (EPA method 3051 A) yielded low REE+ and Li recoveries, with maximum values of 3.3% and 3.6%, respectively, suggesting associations with resistant minerals like clay and phosphates. Elemental mapping indicates that REE+ is associated with phosphate, whereas statistical analysis suggests that REE+ are associated with aluminosilicates, suggesting heterogeneous associations or minimal phosphate contribution. Li also correlated positively with Al 2 O 3 , indicating an aluminosilicate host. This study highlights the potential of coal-associated sediments in the SAB.
Sum reduction is a primitive operation in parallel computing. Device offload support allows a user to use OpenMP directives to take advantage of a highly capable GPU. In this paper, we present the integer sum reduction annotated with the OpenMP directives and evaluate the performance impacts of tunable parameters with the AOMP and GCC compilers on an AMD MI100 GPU. In addition, we explain the implementations of the OpenMP reduction by the compilers. Sweeping over the pruned parameter space, we find that the speedup is approximately 20 with AOMP, and the reduction performance using AOMP is approximately 11% higher than that using GCC. However, the OpenMP offload performance is approximately 30% lower compared to the performance of the reductions written with rocThrust or hipCUB.
The lattice Boltzmann method is a highly scalable Navier-Stokes solver that has been applied to flow problems in a wide array of domains. However, the method is bandwidth-bound on modern GPU accelerators and has a large memory footprint. In this paper, we present new 2D and 3D GPU implementations of two different regularized lattice Boltzmann methods, which are not only able to achieve an acceleration of ∼ 1.4 × w.r.t. reference lattice Boltzmann implementations but also reduce the memory requirements by up to 35% and 47% in 2D and 3D simulations respectively. These new approaches are evaluated on NVIDIA and AMD GPU architectures.
FTTN is a test suite to evaluate the numerical behaviors of matrix accelerators of GPUs (NVIDIA Tensor Cores and AMD Matrix Cores) in a quick and simple setting. Matrix accelerators are heavily used in today's computationally intense applications to speed up matrix multiplications. This test suite provides a comprehensive study on the numerical behaviors of these accelerators, including support for subnormals, rounding modes, extra precision bits and FMA features. Is there
ML-AMD is a Python workflow framework designed to accelerate the discovery and design of functional materials.
recision timing distribution systems require determin istic and repeatable high speed serial data link latency. The EIC Timing Data Link will employ a specialized link layer protocol for deterministic multigigabit communication us ing AMD Ultrascale+ GTH and GTY transceivers. Link la tency must also be measurable to accurately compensate in real time for latency variations of the physical medium. The point-to-point link is full duplex and fully synchronous with a latency control algorithm to align the internal clocks of each system with picosecond resolution. Deterministic clock domain crossing between systems is ensured using static timing analysis of the elastic buffer control signals.

The AMD Radeon Embedded e9170 Graphics Processing Unit (GPU), notably the e9173 Peripheral Component Interconnect Express (PCIE) variant, is of interest to Artemis generation programs with requirements for graphics rendering, compute, artificial intelligence (Ai) with a constraints-requiring piece-part procurement and power consumption of less than 50W. In addition to collecting heavy ion data on this device, a secondary purpose of this test campaign was to validate video capture hardware and software workflows used with GPU, microprocessor and system-on-chip device testing. Five (5) test patterns from the NEPP Processor Enclave (NPE) test suite were used with the e9173. The test patterns covered the operating system’s (OS) idle contribution towards the cross section, matrix math using tensorflow-rocm, two artificial intelligence models developed at NASA GSFC, and an industry standard GPU benchmarking application called Mesa GLXGears.
