FakeADFS
When developing Asp.Net Core applications for deployment in Linux or Docker environments, applications are no longer able to be configured to use Windows Authentication. Many organizations have an ADFS implementation that applications can authenticate off of, but during development there are issues with ADFS. This is a small set of applications that represent a dummy ADFS implementation that removes restrictions while developing locally.
Synthetic Biology PacBio/JAWS QC Analysis (PBJ) v3.0
This software was designed as a sequence validation tool for the assembly of synthetic constructs. It analyzes FASTQ files against a list of reference sequences, combining the results from eight sequencing libraries to generate a summary, and the files needed to view the results in the Integrative Genomics Viewer (IGV) application for manual verification. This was developed for FASTQ files generated by PacBio sequencing, but could be used on any FASTQ files that do not have paired end reads. It can be used to analyze one - eight libraries at a time, and assumes that each construct sequence in the reference will be in each pool, however, this is not a requirement. This is used to identify which libraries of pooled sequences contains a perfect match, or fixable match to the reference file. This pipeline uses many freely available open source libraries, the value added is that in our application the steps of the pipeline are defined in Workflow Description Language (WDL) and run through the Cromwell workflow engine in Docker containers, for easy distribution and set up, as well as the user friendly html summary that is generated.
SynBio QC Dual Barcode QC (DBC) v1.0
This software was designed as a sequence validation tool for the assembly of synthetic constructs, where the constructs have a high degree of similarity and thus are barcoded prior to the sequencing library prep. It demultiplexes each FASTQ file for each barcode, then analyzes the resulting FASTQ files against a list of reference sequences for that barcode/library, combining the results from eight sequencing libraries to generate a summary, and the files needed to view the results in the Integrative Genomics Viewer (IGV) application for manual verification. This was developed for FASTQ files generated by PacBio sequencing, but could be used on any FASTQ files that do not have paired end reads. It can be used to analyze one - eight libraries at a time. Each construct is independently analyzed with only the sequences with the same barcode, in the same pooled library. Then the results are combined into a user friendly summary. This is used to identify which libraries of pooled sequences contains a perfect match, or fixable match to the reference file. This pipeline uses many freely available open source libraries, the value added is that in our application the steps of the pipeline are defined in Workflow Description Language (WDL) and run through the Cromwell workflow engine in Docker containers, for easy distribution and set up, as well as the user friendly html summary that is generated.
SynBio QC-Library QC (LibQC) v2.0.0
This software is a pipeline used to identify the distribution of user-specified sequences in oligo pools that have been sequenced on the MiSeq platform for quality control purposes. The software counts instances of user-specified sequences (inserts or spacers) identified in sequencing data, returning the distribution of sequences in each pool and the length distribution of all the sequences. Among other types similar types of projects, this can be used to assess the quality of a guideRNA library once it has been inserted into the vector of choice to ensure that there is an even distribution of all the individual protospacers in the pool. This pipeline uses many freely available open source libraries, the value added is that in our application the steps of the pipeline are defined in Workflow Description Language (WDL) and run through the Cromwell workflow engine in Docker containers, for easy distribution and set up.

The container takes dataset and other training parameters (sampling rate, training epochs, batch size etc) as input to train CNN. The container writes back the trained CNN model, training and testing metrics and plots to the local workstation
Mbin v1.0
The Mbin software, is a software toolkit that implements the IMG metagenome binning pipeline. The software allows the user to process input metagenome contigs, and produces metagenome assembled genomes (metagenome bins) and valuation metrics per bin including completion and contamination estimates, quality assignment, predicted lineage and eukaryotic potential. It is currently packed as a portable docker container and provides the advantage of running the process of binning and analysis of the bins generated, using a suite of tools run sequentially with controls in place to capture errors and optional arguments to run a modified version depending on individual needs and capabilities.

static-subid: Deterministic subordinate UID/GID assignment for unprivileged containers
static-subid calculates predictable subordinate UID and GID ranges for Linux users based on their UID, ensuring consistent ID mappings across multiple systems. Unlike shadow-utils' sequential allocation (which depends on creation order), static-subid uses a deterministic formula that guarantees the same user UID always receives the same subordinate ID range. Subordinate IDs enable user namespaces for unprivileged container runtimes (Podman, Docker rootless mode, LXC) by mapping container UIDs/GIDs to host subordinate IDs without requiring root privileges.
P-MartCancer–Interactive Online Software to Enable Analysis of Shotgun Cancer Proteomic Datasets
P-MartCancer is a new interactive web-based software environment that enables biomedical and biological scientists to perform in-depth analyses of global proteomics data without requiring direct interaction with the data or with statistical software. P-MartCancer offers a series of statistical modules associated with quality assessment, peptide and protein statistics, protein quantification and exploratory data analyses driven by the user via customized workflows and interactive visualization. Currently, P-MartCancer offers access to multiple cancer proteomic datasets generated through the Clinical Proteomics Tumor Analysis Consortium (CPTAC) at the peptide, gene and protein levels. P-MartCancer is deployed using Azure technologies (http://pmart.labworks.org/cptac.html), the web-service is alternatively available via Docker Hub (https://hub.docker.com/r/pnnl/pmart-web/) and many statistical functions can be utilized directly from an R package available on GitHub (https://github.com/pmartR).
Galba: genome annotation with miniprot and AUGUSTUS
The Earth Biogenome Project has rapidly increased the number of available eukaryotic genomes, but most released genomes continue to lack annotation of protein-coding genes. In addition, no transcriptome data is available for some genomes. Various gene annotation tools have been developed but each has its limitations. Here, we introduce GALBA, a fully automated pipeline that utilizes miniprot, a rapid protein-to-genome aligner, in combination with AUGUSTUS to predict genes with high accuracy. Accuracy results indicate that GALBA is particularly strong in the annotation of large vertebrate genomes. We also present use cases in insects, vertebrates, and a land plant. GALBA is fully open source and available as a docker image for easy execution with Singularity in high-performance computing environments. Our pipeline addresses the critical need for accurate gene annotation in newly sequenced genomes, and we believe that GALBA will greatly facilitate genome annotation for diverse organisms.
ParFlow Sand Tank: A tool for groundwater exploration
The ParFlow Sand Tank model is an open source application designed to allow users to interactively simulate and visualize groundwater movement through the subsurface. The app is designed for both research and education; teaching hydrogeology concepts and making it easy explore and run sophisticated groundwater simulations. Our goal is to support increased accessibility and usability of research grade hydrology tools for research and teaching. The Sand Tank application simulates groundwater and surface water fluxes as well as contaminant transport in real time using the integrated physical hydrology model ParFlow (Kollet & Maxwell, 2006; Maxwell & Miller, 2005; Osei-Kuffuor et al., 2014) and the particle tracking code EcoSlim (Maxwell et al., 2019). ParFlow is a numerical hydrology model that simulates spatially distributed groundwater and surface water flow. It is a well established research tool with more than 90 publications documenting its development use to advance our understanding of groundwater dynamics and groundwater surface water interactions from the hillslope to the continental scale e.g. (Condon et al., 2020; Condon & Maxwell, 2019; Maxwell & Condon, 2016). It is designed for efficient parallel computation and has been run on many platforms spanning from laptops to supercomputers. However, one of the challenges of ParFlow is that it requires significant training and hydrologic expertise to develop simulations. The Sand Tank application makes this model accessible to anyone for education and exploration. Our application uses ParFlow for its simulation backend and ParaView for the data loading and processing. The communication infrastructure relies on the ParaViewWeb framework. We use model templates deployed in Docker images to setup the Sand Tank framework. Users can build the application locally or interact with it through our web deployment. When interacting with a template users can interactively change model parameters like subsurface processes or pump/inject water into the subsurface and watch the system respond to their changes in real time as the simulation runs. Additionally, our template setup will allow more advanced users to build custom templates of increasing complexity for both research and educational purposes.
Sapsan: Framework for Supernovae Turbulence Modeling with Machine Learning
Sapsan is a framework designed to make Machine Learning (ML) more accessible in the study of turbulence, with a focus on astrophysical applications. Sapsan includes modules to load, filter, subsample, batch, and split the data from hydrodynamic (HD) simulations for training and validation. Next, the framework includes built-in conventional and physically-motivated estimators that have been used for turbulence modeling. This ties into Sapsan’s custom estimator module, aimed at designing a custom ML model layer-by-layer, which is the core benefit of using the framework. To share your custom model, every new project created via Sapsan comes with pre-filled, ready-for-release Docker files. Furthermore, training and evaluation modules come with Sapsan as well. The latter, among other features, includes the construction of power spectra and comparison to established analytical turbulence closure models, such as a gradient model. Thus, Sapsan attempts to minimize the hard work required for data preparation and analysis, leaving one to focus on the ML model design itself.
Charliecloud: Unprivileged containers for user-defined software stacks in HPC
Supercomputing centers are seeing increasing demand for user-defined software stacks (UDSS), instead of or in addition to the stack provided by the center. These UDSS support user needs such as complex dependencies or build requirements, externally required configurations, portability, and consistency. The challenge for centers is to provide these services in a usable manner while minimizing the risks: security, support burden, missing functionality, and performance. We present Charliecloud, which uses the Linux user and mount namespaces to run industry-standard Docker containers with no privileged operations or daemons on center resources. Our simple approach avoids most security risks while maintaining access to the performance and functionality already on offer, doing so in less than 500 lines of code. Charliecloud promises to bring an industry-standard UDSS user workflow to existing, minimally altered HPC resources.
FTS3: Data Movement Service in containers deployed in OKD [Slides]
The File Transfer Service (FTS3) is a data movement service developed at CERN which is used to distribute the majority of the Large Hadron Collider's data across the Worldwide LHC Computing Grid (WLCG) infrastructure. At Fermilab, we have deployed a couple of FTS3 instances for Intensity Frontier experiments (e.g. DUNE) to transfer data in America and Europe, using a container-based strategy. During this talk, we are going to present the two different configurations currently running at Fermilab, comparing and contrasting a Docker-based OKD deployment against a traditional RPM-based deployment and giving an overview of the possible issues encountered. In addition, we discuss our method of certificate management and maintenance utilizing Kubernetes cronjobs.
