ASCI Program 4Q FY-99-Quarterly Progress Report (Unclassified Projects)
PSE is made up of four technical areas, ASCI Simulation Development Environment (ASDE), Data Exploration and Management (DEM), Data Transfer and Storage (DTS), and Distributed Systems (DS). The goal of ASDE is to create a truly scalable simulation development environment across ASCI platforms. Specific objectives are to improve the environment to accelerate application development, to improve reliability of codes, and to enable better scalable performance. DEM's effort is to provide an interactive environment for efficiently and visualizing massive amounts of data. WE are working to help scientists spend more time concentrating on data understanding by providing tools that both enhance interactions and minimize unnecessary manipulations of data. The goal of DTS is to provide multiple gigabytes/sec parallel data transfer, multiple petabytes of archival mass storage, and new architectures for ''end-to-end'' I/O all helping to ensure the highest utilization of ASCI resources. DS consists of secure networking, secure distributed computing, and resource management for ASCI platforms. These three research and development activities are fundamental to the creation of the basic infrastructure for the ASCI computing environment.
