Automated Mobility Platforms (AMPs) for Versatile, Energy Efficient, Facility and District Scale Transport

The Automated Mobility Platforms (AMPs) concept is envisioned as an on-demand network of automated lightweight electric vehicles serving mobility needs in a large facility or district-scale setting. Supplanting the function of legacy automated people mover systems, AMPs is scalable to meet the needs of moving people in large interior spaces with destinations that are too distant for walking and in which larger motor vehicles would be unfeasible or undesirable. The AMPs system is designed for automated management and operation, extending to how and where the vehicles are sent to serve mobility needs, as organized through a supervisory management system. AMPs vehicles are requested by users via smartphone app or buttons located on interactive infrastructure elements. AMPs vehicles function similarly to elevators, though in the horizontal plane, wherein users summon vehicles, and are moved point-to-point, with user requested destinations set through intuitive interfaces. The concept targets extensibility, manageability, and performance improvements over legacy technologies, with accessibility and safety features integrally designed into the system.

Toward designing effective exascale scientific computing workflows: experiences and best practices

Many fields within scientific computing have embraced advances in big-data analysis and machine learning, which often requires the deployment of large, distributed and complicated workflows that may combine training neural networks, performing simulations, running inference, and performing database queries and data analysis in asynchronous, parallel and pipelined execution frameworks. Such a shift has brought into focus the need for scalable, efficient workflow management solutions with reproducibility, error and provenance handling, traceability, and checkpoint-restart capabilities, among other needs. Here, we discuss challenges and best-practices for deploying exascale-generation computational science workflows on resources at the Oak Ridge Leadership Computing Facility (OLCF). We present our experiences with large-scale deployment of distributed workflows on the Summit supercomputer, including for bioinformatics and computational biophysics, materials science, and deep learning model optimization. We also present problems and solutions created by working within a Python-centric software base on traditional HPC systems, and discuss steps that will be required before the convergence of HPC, AI, and data science can be fully realized. Our results point to a wealth of exciting new possibilities for harnessing this convergence to tackle new scientific challenges.

A Program Analysis Tool to Query Static and Dynamic Characteristics of HPC Applications

Emerging HPC platforms are becoming extraordinarily difficult to program as a result of complex, deep and heterogeneous memory hierarchies, heterogeneous cores, and the need to divide work and data among them. New programming models and libraries are being developed to aid in porting efforts of application developers, but substantial code restructuring is still necessary to fully make use of these new technologies. To do this effectively, these developers need information about their source code characteristics, including static and dynamic (e.g. performance) information to direct their optimisation efforts and make key decisions. On the other hand, system administrators need to understand how users are using the software stack and resources on their systems to understand what software they need to provide to improve the productivity of the users on a platform.In this paper we describe a tool that combines compiler and profiler information to query performance characteristics within an application or across multiple applications on a given platform. Static and dynamic data about applications are collected and stored together in an SQL database that can be queried by either a developer or a system administrator. We will demonstrate the capabilities of this tool via a real-world example from application-driven case studies that aims at understanding the use of scientific libraries on a routine from the molecular simulation application CP2K.

Decarbonized cement blends

Various embodiments include cementitious compositions with low levels of embodied greenhouse gas emissions, in particular carbon dioxide, as a result of its production and/or use compared to conventional cementitious materials, such as portland cement. Various embodiments include any cementitious material or materials with low embodied carbon, as well as any material produced using this cement.
