INCITE and Next-generation Leadership Systems
SESSION: INCITE and Next-generation Leadership Systems
EVENT TYPE: Birds of a Feather
TIME: 5:30PM – 7:00PM
SESSION LEADER: Julia C. White
ROOM: WSCC 211
ABSTRACT:
The Innovative and Novel Computational Impact on Theory and Experiment (INCITE) program will grant allocations totaling more than 1.7 billion core hours at the U.S. Department of Energy’s Argonne and Oak Ridge Leadership Computing Facilities (LCFs) in 2013. Researchers around the world with high-impact, computationally intensive projects are invited to apply. At the BoF, LCF staff will discuss new systems to be allocated through INCITE: a Cray XK6 and IBM Blue Gene/Q at the Oak Ridge and Argonne centers, respectively. Characteristics of successful proposals will be covered and writing tips will be provided for potential proposal authors, with emphasis on the importance of maximizing node-level parallelism. Instructions on requesting early access for benchmarking will also be covered. Join us for open discussion and Q&A on topics ranging from LCF system architectures to INCITE proposal review criteria.
