If you are a provider dealing with inefficient software on heterogeneous hardware — this project developed re-engineered codes for 7 target applications that optimize energy efficiency and performance. This allows you to offer better compute services for complex physics simulations.
High-Performance Computing Software for Massive Scale Scientific Data and Simulations
Imagine trying to run a modern video game on a computer from the 90s; it just won't work. This project updates seven massive scientific programs so they can run on the world's most powerful new supercomputers. It's like upgrading the engine of a car to handle a thousand times more speed without breaking down.
What needed solving
Current scientific simulation software cannot handle the extreme complexity and scale of new exascale supercomputers. This leads to wasted computing power and an inability to process the massive 'data torrents' produced by these machines.
What was built
Re-engineered versions of 7 lighthouse astrophysical codes (including Open GADGET and RAMSES) and a set of machine-learning and visualization tools for big data analysis.
Who needs this
Who can put this to work
If you are a vendor dealing with outdated code that cannot scale to new hardware — this project developed innovative programming solutions and libraries. This enables you to modernize legacy simulation tools for the exascale era.
If you are a firm dealing with a torrent of simulation data that is too large to process — this project developed machine-learning and visualization tools for high-performance analysis. This reduces the time needed to extract insights from massive datasets.
