High Performance Computing Management: A Sustainable System Software Approach

The demand for high performance computing (HPC) resources continues to grow, driven by the increasing complexity of modeling and simulation, artificial intelligence (AI), and machine learning (ML) workloads [Porter]. The growing energy consumption demand of these HPC systems is a significant concern, both in terms of operational costs and environmental impact. AI hardware accelerators are expected to reach 1.5% of the world’s power consumption by 2029 [Shah].

Sequence-Based Anomaly Detection in Critical Infrastructure Networks

United States critical infrastructure faces new cyber threats from adversarial nation-state actors in the form of malware-free attacks. Traditional cybersecurity techniques use rules-based methods to identify indicators of compromise on networks, often missing these sophisticated attacks. Our approach leverages multiple state of the art machine learning models in a pipeline to identify abnormal network events through sequential analysis. We combine both device and packet-level information into individual events to characterize anomalous network actions. The model is trained and tested on real network traffic from the Idaho National Lab High Performance Computing (HPC) with greater than 98% precision. It is capable of flagging malicious tactics used by adversaries in malware-free attacks, severe changes to the network, and abnormal user activity by network devices.

INL Poster - Juan Barrera Salazar

Generation IV nuclear reactors introduce several advantages and benefits in terms of safety and efficiency when compared with their predecessors from previous generation. This is due, among many things, to the use of innovative forms of fuel and coolant, different from the conventional ones used in the last decades. Given that these upcoming designs utilize emerging technologies, the related instrumentation is also in the process of being developed; therefore, it is necessary to establish the sensitivity requirements and the effects of uncertainty on different properties of the components and elements of the reactor designs. This report presents the results of simulations that quantify the impacts of the uncertainties of four thermophysical properties of the refrigerant salt (LiF-BeF2) for the Kairos Power benchmark model (g-FHR) for steady state making use of the Sobol’ method through polynomial chaos surrogate modeling. The properties of the salt to which uncertainty was evaluated were density, dynamic viscosity, thermal conductivity and heat capacity. This study was carried out using the Griffin/Pronghorn multiphysics model under the computational resources of the Idaho National Laboratory (INL) High Performance Computing (HPC). The results indicate a weak dependence of the uncertainty of thermal conductivity on the quantities of core pressure drop and core outlet temperature.

A Brief Survey on High Performance Computing Systems Power Management

This paper provides a survey of software-based power management techniques in High Performance Computing (HPC) systems. Seven existing power management and monitoring tools and frameworks are discussed. These are: Variorum, dynamic energy-performance optimizer (DEPO), Powersched, Bull Dynamic Power Optimizer (BDPO), Energy Aware Runtime (EAR), Global Extensible Open Power Manager (GEOPM), and PoLiMEr. Each of these tools is evaluated based on hardware abstraction, optimization methods, usability, and experimental validation. This survey highlights the diversity of approaches in managing energy efficiency, from vendor-neutral APIs to algorithm-driven power capping, and dynamic frequency adjustments. Given that energy requirements for large computational systems is increasing quickly, the importance of integrating these tools into existing HPC environments and the need for further research in this rapidly evolving field is also discussed.

Nuclear Science User Facilities High Performance Computing: Provide a Science Gateway for HPC Users

Idaho National Laboratory (INL), supported by the Department of Energy Office of Nuclear Energy (DOE-NE) through the Nuclear Science User Facilities (NSUF), provides direct access to the Barracuda Virtual Reactor and 18 Multiphysics Object-Oriented Simulation Environment (MOOSE) applications via a web-based science gateway developed using Open Ondemand on the INL high performance computing (HPC) systems. This gateway features the computational tools of the Nuclear Computational Resource Center (NCRC) and the computing resources of the INL high performance computing systems. These computational tools are a key foundation of collaboration and innovation in nuclear energy systems research. High performance computing resources and INL staff directly support the mission and objectives of DOE-NE. The Barracuda Virtual Reactor was the first science gateway deployed in Jan 2021 to support NSUF users. In July 2021, the science gateway was expanded to support access to NCRC codes for use across all supported INL HPC systems. The HPC science gateway currently supports 20 total applications. The gateway also includes access to training resources specific to NCRC tools.

DOE High Performance Computing Operational Review (HPCOR): Enabling Data-Driven Scientific Discovery at HPC Facilities

U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) High Performance Computing (HPC) facilities are on the verge of a paradigm shift in the way they deliver systems and services to science and engineering teams. Research projects are producing a wide variety of data at unprecedented scale and level of complexity, with community-specific services that are part of the data collection and analysis workflow. On June 18-19, 2014 representatives from six DOE HPC centers met in Oakland, CA at the DOE High Performance Operational Review (HPCOR) to discuss how they can best provide facilities and services to enable large-scale data-driven scientific discovery at the DOE national laboratories. The report contains findings from that review.

Big Data: Next-Generation Machines for Big Science

Addressing the scientific grand challenges identified by the US Department of Energy’s (DOE’s) Office of Science’s programs alone demands a total leadership-class computing capability of 150 to 400 Pflops by the end of this decade. The successors to three of the DOE’s most powerful leadership-class machines are set to arrive in 2017 and 2018—the products of the Collaboration Oak Ridge Argonne Livermore (CORAL) initiative, a national laboratory–industry design/build approach to engineering nextgeneration petascale computers for grand challenge science. These mission-critical machines will enable discoveries in key scientific fields such as energy, biotechnology, nanotechnology, materials science, and high-performance computing, and serve as a milestone on the path to deploying exascale computing capabilities.

HiPACE++ v0.1

Hipace++ is the new implementation of the DESY-LBNL code Hipace (not distributed nor licensed) for plasma acceleration, relying on the quasi-static particle-in-cell (PIC) method, enabling fast and accurate simulations of plasma accelerators for problems satisfying the quasi-static approximation. Plasma acceleration is a priority in the ATAP division, and such problems represent a wide range of parameters. Hipace++ is an HPC (high-performance computing) code running on supercomputers and it provides the first efficient implementation of the quasi-static PIC method on Graphic Processing Units (GPU), showing 10x speedup and using much less resources than CPU implementations for production simulations. It currently runs on Nvidia GPUs and will ultimately be portable to more accelerated HPC platforms. The porting strategy is novel, and can be adapted to other flavors of quasi-static PIC. Besides, Hipace++ aims at using mesh refinement for higher efficiency, thus enabling simulations unfeasible today. For this purpose, Hipace++ depends on the open-source library AMReX (Adaptive Mesh Refinement at EXascale) developed at LBNL.
