July 31 2000 ARL 2 teraflop peak with IBM O3000 E10000 Army focus Future Combat Systems (new thinking on tanks) No new metasystm projects -- can modify old ones! One page success stories Outreach to ITEA Package either by S and T (i.e. CTA's) or by congress/pentagon recognized priorities Radha wants final report SIP:Ahalt Matlab wonderful -- will deliver commercial parallel SIP Forum positive; by invitation only Khoros superceded by Matlab which has dataflow support (better than Khoros) Matlab's dataflow subsystem is called Simulink Matlab now runs on a Web server and becomes an analysis engine Matlab has a database link -- result is an SIP portal New DC for SIP at WPAFB Currently Matlab has no security They do cluster detection for datamining VSIPL is SIP library/interface standard MPI-RT CFD: Soni Software Commercial, CHSSI and "other" Trend -- more use of Commercial and CHSSI codes Base technology unchanged Will be workshop on all CHSSI codes Got ITR funding Web-based Grid Course Video record of courses Web-based CFD tool Technology based literaure source Formed MSS: Multidisciplinary Simulation System Laboratory at MSU CFD linked with CCM CSM IMT for multidisciplinary simulations CSM: Hsia No project funding year 4 -- just base effort (20% Hsia 5% Hilton) Hilton is professor Did a survey of CSM training needs 2 to 3 day favorite short time Wins over 1 week and 1 day 64% prefer traditional classes ~18% asynchronous 4% other, rest no preference describes 2D crack development project that was funded in year 3 but not year 4 (3 months year 3) Need hypervelocity for ARL needs Health monitoring of composities MAPINT 2000 Session Hard to find ARL -- Sandia offered fresh Illinois PhD $90K salary FMS: Furmanski Believes Microsoft will win! Believes WebHLA critical for DoD successes Worries that CMS was wasted effort Wants to continue this work Seems to think Larry Rothenberg effort will succeed SPAWAR is home (Wasilauski) of CHSSI FMS No use of ARL Site 1 million mines Original plan to use Speedes not practical Speedes alive and well for JSIMS Steinman has gone from Metron to RAM labs AdvanceWork mobile/handheld/wireless training for corporations Sell to Corporations, not people Telecon once a week; Basic language learning built in hand-held Oracle DICE link Oracle and DICE as federates Will more and more people supply products as federates e.g. Matlab as a federate JSIMS Not HLA compliant internally For WebFlow UML can use ArgoUML Public Domain Microsoft Visio 2000 Make Visio HLA Federate ARL mainly ModSAF DMSO changing !?!?!?!?!?! CCM: Pritchard Wien97 metacomputing tool evaluation Chemistry succesful -- now can do "any" molecule doing multidisciplinary IMT: Skreiner Has a lot of projects !?! MRTFB Major Range and Test Facility Bases Loretta Auvil leads effort on Java time series analysis tool Oracle 8i Pax River (Navy) likes work Extend SciPortal to CAE Portal Claims wants to work with me on CAE Portal Keenest on datamining for engineering not really any multidisciplinary apps P-Tools: Browne MPI v. openMP Claim combination better than pure MPI especially on current IBM architecture or clustered E10000 Likes more uniform environment PAPI ensures good 1 processor importance Kerberos for NetSolve( client server, not agent) insecure version used at SDSC for task farming of Monte Carlo secure version not used Globus and Legion comparison Several other funded projects -- including NSF CGrads Juan Carlos Chaves NAVO/ARL Legion Test-Bed: Legion MPI (Cross machine) Code Porting using multi-threaded LAPACK on SGI Origin 2000 Deploy VAMPIR TotalView Smart Resource Broker: Barbara Chapman Working with GRD people in Raytheon 2 Houston students to Argonne for Summer Central Directory Service Can easily change Globus Security EZGrid naive front end with one queuing syntax (Globus RSL) appears to overlap hotpage, Gateway Database of application resource usage Year 4: set up Globus at ARL -- security Bill Feierson at Ames wants to collaborate Visualization: Clarke Heavy Data: HDF5 Light Data: XML Link to EnSight Stereo Movies Morgan State ParaDyn, CTH Integration Training: Mary Bea Walker Distance Learning: 4 Tango classes, Access Grid: Powerpoint plus audio/video conferencing Course on Global Toolkit using this. Wrote a february 00 technical report on distance learning Paper published in education conference on summer intern program Charlie Neodowicz says complaints that ARL too centric. Thus distance courses very important Year of Portable Classroom No consolidated list of courses Kaplan, Scott good talks Datamining: Skreiner What is it NCSA finds that neural nets better interpolate test results than simulations Is regression analysis, neural nets just "data analysis" Have a modular framework but this is "just" didtributed objects Data Assimilation is more sophisticated than current methods N-grams groups of N characters -- allows words to be mispelt and still recognized Tennessee Latent Semantic Indexing pet-doers@arl.army.mil experience/volunteers/other technologies Laptop Multimedia Windows 2000 PVS -- Initial Install on Laptop MicroSoft NetMeeting -- Initial Install on Laptop Tango -- Initial Install on Laptop VNC -- Initial Install on Laptop Real Server, Producer, Slideshow -- Initial Install on Laptop Windows Media -- Initial Install on Laptop Access Grid Install at 2 Special sites Access Grid -- Evaluate WebeX Placeware Centra WLS XMX MBONE -- Evaluate Blackboard -- Evaluate WebCT -- Evaluate Lotus Learning Space -- Evaluate CUSeeMe -- Evaluate PictureTel -- Evaluate PolyCom -- Evaluate Pure Asynchronous Derek multimedia database -- Evaluate gnutella/napster Microft Exchange Server -- Evaluate (Furmanski) WebDAV bulletin board/mail list egroups.com hypernews user support system -- Remedy (Web +Oracle) Shared event Browser Collaborative Visualization DICE AVS (VNC NetMeeting) "Science Whiteboard" TekExplorer Calendar (including multiple handheld and scripted multiple update) Conferencing Management Instant Messenger -- Security?
