Framework For Performing Time-dependent Pebble Bed Reactor Simulations
The present work details the creation of a high-fidelity Monte Carlo methodology for analyzing the run-in and subsequent approach to equilibrium for PBRs. The methodology entails a Python module wrapped around Serpent so as to perform neutronics calculations, move pebbles, refuel the core, and discharge pebbles, thereby modeling the explicit behavior of the PBR run-in. The code kugelpy is within the GitHub repository `pyrates`.
SWinzip v. 2.0
SWinzip is a Matlab and C++ library for scientific lossy data compression and reconstruction using compressed sensing and tree-wavelets transforms. These methods are known for their large compression and usefulness in data analytics such as features extraction. Compressed sensing and wavelets methods rely heavily on sparse and dense linear algebra operations implemented through the Boost codes in our library. SWinzip accommodates data represented on both regular grids (e.g. image data) and point-clouds (e.g. unstructured meshes). In SWinzip v2.0, there is more focus on wavelet compression and the following features are added: - The matrix-free (direct) wavelet transform is implemented in both C++ and Matlab. A threshold-based compression can now be used. Examples for distributed compression are also added. - Python implementation of Alpert wavelet transforms - Field data comparison using wavelets in Matlab with global and local metrics
BiG-SLiCE 2 v1.0.0
BiG-SLiCE was originally an open source Python-based command line bioinformatics software that offers a highly scalable clustering analysis on biosynthetic gene clusters (BGC) data. It allows a simultaneous analysis of millions of BGCs, exceeding the capability of other existing tools (around one hundred thousands). As a tradeoff, the clustering accuracy is relatively lower and sometimes fall short in corner cases and specific BGC classes such as the RiPPs (Ribosomally-translated, Post-translationally modified Peptides). In BiG-SLiCE V2 (developed in LBNL), the clustering algorithm has been significantly improved to deliver a much accurate result even for RiPPs and other previous corner case classes. Moreover, the speed of the overall pipeline has been improved by 50-100%. Finally, additional features were implemented to support downstream analyses of BiG-SLiCE results, such as customized tabular (TSV/CSV) and columnar (Parquet) outputs.
BaseBuddy v1
The software "BaseBuddy" (basebuddy.lbl.gov) is a user-friendly web app designed for codon optimization of heterologous genes. Codon optimization is a widely used technique to enhance the expression levels of non-native genes. Our app is built on the DNA Chisel Python library (Zulkower and Rosser, 2020), which offers highly customizable and transparent gene optimization. Unlike DNA Chisel, which is a command-line interface software with numerous optional functions, our web app simplifies the process for users. Additionally, while DNA Chisel relies on the outdated Kazusa codon usage database, our app introduces the option to utilize the most recent version of the CoCoPUTs database (Athey et al., 2017). By incorporating CoCoPUTs, we also expand the range of target organisms and maintain up-to-date sequencing data for more accurate codon optimization results.
Reinforcement Learning for Distribution Grid Optimization (PyCIGAR) v0.1
PyCIGAR is a python software package that merges off-the-shelf reinforcement learning libraries (RLLib and Ray) with electric power distribution system simulation tools (OpenDSS and a custom power flow solver built by LBL). PyCIGAR enables the training of neural networks to optimize the behavior of different components in the electric distribution grid, such as control systems in photovoltaic rooftop solar inverters and electric battery storage systems. The software package has been used to train neural networks to update settings in photovoltaic rooftop solar inverter control systems to mitigate cyber attacks on other solar photovoltaic rooftop devices.
AutoCSM
A template system-of-systems modeling approach for automating the development, deployment, and integration of cooling system models (CSMs) for supercomputing facilities within the ExaDigiT framework. AutoCSM is a Python-based framework to assist in CSM developers in accelerating the creation and deployment of system-level thermal-hydraulic CSMs. The intention is for this tool specifically to help standardize digital twin workflows for ExaDigiT. However, this tool can be used independent of ExaDigiT (and even other systems besides CSMs).

Common Electric Power Transmission System Model JSON Schema Specification
The Common Electric Power Transmission System Model (CTM) is an intuitive, extensible, language-agnostic, and error-resistant specification of electric power network components parameter names and units, and relation between components, intended for use by the research community developing new computational methods for power systems operations and simulation. Power system datasets following the CTM specification can be read as dictionaries and manipulated in that form in most programming languages (e.g., Python, Julia, C++). This standard data structure in CTM makes it easy to work in multiple power systems domains (e.g., economic operation, reliability assessment, electricity markets, stability assessment, etc.) without requiring conversions between use-case-specific file formats with information loss in the process. This repository specifies CTM as a JSON Schema, provides documentation, derivate (code-generated) implementations of CTM, and example data and usage of the schema for important use cases.

Battery Lifecycle Framework
The Battery Lifecycle (BLC) Framework is an open-source platform that provides tools to visualize and share battery data from material characterization, cell testing, manufacturing, and field testing through the technology development cycle. BLC has three components: data importers, a front-end for querying the data and creating visualizations, and an application programming interface to provide access to the data from Python. BLC has been deployed for tracking the development of a battery from the lab to a manufacturing line and systems installed in the field and for comparing studies of multiple cells of the same battery chemistry and configuration. The code was developed around Redash, a robust open-source extract-transform-load engine.

Mesh Computing Remote Automatic Workflow
The software suite uses a microservice architecture using Docker and `docker-compose`. The microservices are as follows: 1. User interface. This interface is written in JavaScript using the Svelte framework. It exposes form elements and a 3D visualizer to prompt the user through the definition of microstructure parameters, and setting parameters for mesh generation and refinement. 2. Mesh generator. This is a container running the Python package for DREAM3D to generate a voxelized mesh that represents a microstructure defined by the user in the interface. 3. Cubit runner. This is a secure shell protocol tool that makes the submitting the DREAM mesh to an HPC instance and starts to run Cubit shell commands to smooth the grain boundaries with its `sculpt` library, applies user-defined boundary node sets, and bundles and returns the simulation-ready meshes and input files as a zipped directory.
