Interventions for scientific and enterprise applications based on high perfor...eSAT Journals
Abstract High performance computing refers to the practice of aggregating computing power in a way that delivers much higher performance than one could get out of a typical desktop computer in order to solve large problems in science, engineering or business. While cloud computing is a model for enabling convenient, on-demand network access to a shared pool of configurable computing resources (e.g., networks, servers, storage, applications, and services) that can be rapidly provisioned and released with minimal management effort or service provider interaction. The scope of HPC is scientific research and engineering as well as the design of enterprise applications. As enterprise applications are data centric, user friendly, complex, scalable and often require software packages, decision support systems, warehouse while scientific applications have need of the availability of a huge number of computers for executing large scale experiments. These needs can be addressed by using high-performance and cloud computing. The goal of HPC is to reduce execution time and accommodate larger and more complicated problems. While cloud computing provides scientists with a completely new model of utilizing the computing infrastructure, computing resources, storage resources, as well as applications can be dynamically provisioned on a pay per use basis. These resources can be released when they are no more needed. This paper focuses on enabling and scaling computing systems to support the execution of scientific and business applications. Keywords: Scientific computing, enterprise applications, cloud computing, high performance computing
Grid computing enables sharing and aggregation of distributed resources as a single system. It originated in 1997 to better utilize idle computing resources. Key developments included OGSA/OGSI for services and Globus Toolkit for security. Grids coordinate decentralized resources using open standards to provide quality of service. They allow exploiting underutilized resources and provide massive parallel CPU capacity for data-intensive applications like bioinformatics. Users must enroll in a virtual organization and install client software to access shared resources for their jobs.

In this deck from the 2019 Stanford HPC Conference, Nik Nystrom from the Pittsburgh Supercomputing Center presents: Pioneering and Democratizing Scalable HPC+AI.
"PSC's Bridges was the first system to successfully converge HPC, AI, and Big Data. Designed for the U.S. national research community and supported by NSF, Bridges now serves approximately 1800 projects and 7500 users at 380 institutions, and it is the foundation around which new HPC+AI projects have launched. Bridges emphasizes "nontraditional" uses that span the life, physical, and social sciences, computer science, engineering, business, and humanities. Scalable HPC+AI is driving many of those applications, which span diverse topics such as learning root causes of cancer, strategic reasoning, designing new materials, predicting severe storms, recognizing speech including contextual information, and detecting objects in 4k streaming video. To address the demand for scalable AI, PSC recently introduced Bridges-AI, which adds transformative new AI capability. In this presentation, we share our vision in designing HPC+AI systems at PSC and highlight some of the exciting research breakthroughs they are enabling."

Scaling the mirrorworld with knowledge graphsAlan Morrison
After registration at https://www.brighttalk.com/webcast/9273/364148, you can view the full recording, which begins with Scott Abel's intro for a few minutes, then my talk for 20 minutes, and then Sebastian Gabler's. First presented on October 23 at an SWC webinar.
Conclusions:
(1) The mirrorworld (a world of digital twins, which will be 25 years in the making, according to Kevin Kelly) will require semantic knowledge graphs for interaction and interoperability.
(2) This fact implies massive future demand for knowledge graph technology and other new data infrastructure innovations, comparable to the scale of oil & gas industry infrastructure development over 150 years.
(3) Conceivably, knowledge graphs could be used to address a $205 billion market demand by 2021 for graph databases, information management, digital twins, conversational AI, virtual assistants and as knowledge bases/accelerated training for deep learning, etc. but the problem is that awareness of the tech is low, and the semantics community that understands the tech is still quite small.
(4) Over the next decades, knowledge graphs promise both scalability and substantial efficiencies in enterprises. But lack of awareness of its potential and how to harness it will continue to be stumbling blocks to adoption.

CAKE: Sharing Slices of Confidential Data on BlockchainClaudio Di Ciccio
Presented at the CAiSE 2024 Forum, Intelligent Information Systems, June 6th, Limassol, Cyprus.
Synopsis: Cooperative information systems typically involve various entities in a collaborative process within a distributed environment. Blockchain technology offers a mechanism for automating such processes, even when only partial trust exists among participants. The data stored on the blockchain is replicated across all nodes in the network, ensuring accessibility to all participants. While this aspect facilitates traceability, integrity, and persistence, it poses challenges for adopting public blockchains in enterprise settings due to confidentiality issues. In this paper, we present a software tool named Control Access via Key Encryption (CAKE), designed to ensure data confidentiality in scenarios involving public blockchains. After outlining its core components and functionalities, we showcase the application of CAKE in the context of a real-world cyber-security project within the logistics domain.

Which one is cheapest? Which one is fastest? Which one will scale to meet our needs?
Join me in this session as we dive into each AWS hosting service to determine which one is best for your scenario and explain why!
Building Production Ready Search Pipelines with Spark and MilvusZilliz
Spark is the widely used ETL tool for processing, indexing and ingesting data to serving stack for search. Milvus is the production-ready open-source vector database. In this talk we will show how to use Spark to process unstructured data to extract vector representations, and push the vectors to Milvus vector database for search serving.
Removing Uninteresting Bytes in Software FuzzingAftab Hussain
Imagine a world where software fuzzing, the process of mutating bytes in test seeds to uncover hidden and erroneous program behaviors, becomes faster and more effective. A lot depends on the initial seeds, which can significantly dictate the trajectory of a fuzzing campaign, particularly in terms of how long it takes to uncover interesting behaviour in your code. We introduce DIAR, a technique designed to speedup fuzzing campaigns by pinpointing and eliminating those uninteresting bytes in the seeds. Picture this: instead of wasting valuable resources on meaningless mutations in large, bloated seeds, DIAR removes the unnecessary bytes, streamlining the entire process.
In this work, we equipped AFL, a popular fuzzer, with DIAR and examined two critical Linux libraries -- Libxml's xmllint, a tool for parsing xml documents, and Binutil's readelf, an essential debugging and security analysis command-line tool used to display detailed information about ELF (Executable and Linkable Format). Our preliminary results show that AFL+DIAR does not only discover new paths more quickly but also achieves higher coverage overall. This work thus showcases how starting with lean and optimized seeds can lead to faster, more comprehensive fuzzing campaigns -- and DIAR helps you find such seeds.

3. Peak Computational Capability by Country
And as we heard last year 1993
countries all over the
world are racing to close
the leadership gap in
capabilities once held by
just a small number of
nations.

13. Why do they stay at the bottom?
They already have something
that works, and it’s too hard to
just “take ‘er for a spin.”

14. How do we increase the reach of HPC?
Hardware has gotten cheaper and better
There are system management options that
reduce deployment complexity
Interfaces are primitive (some work needed)
Incomplete toolchain (hand to hand combat)
Little expertise and no social support
“I don’t know how, and there’s no one around here
I can ask!”

15. Makers and Takers
HPC Consumer
– Use high performance computers
– Run applications
– Understand computing principles
HPC Provider
– Run and design high performance computers
– Write and extend applications
– Master computing principles
In practice this is a continuous spectrum, and
workers may move in either direction during their
career.

18. DoE HPC Provider Study
IDC HPC User Forum: Special Study (July 2010). A Study of the Talent
and Skill Set Issues Impacting HPC Data Centers.
Staffing is hard
– 93% of HPC centers surveyed said that hiring qualified staff is
“somewhat hard” or “very hard” with the majority reporting that it is “very
hard” to find qualified staff.
Where do staff come from?
– STEM grads
– Other HPC centers
– HPC vendors
What skills are needed on the provider side?
– Combined understanding of a scientific discipline and computational
science and/or computer science; parallel programming and code
optimization, especially for scaling to large processor/core counts;
algorithm development; HEC system administration; and understanding
of parallel file systems.

Career transition for those already in the workforce
just as important as increasing STEM grads
If we want to teach it we have to define it
– Enumerate the skill vectors that span our space (steal when possible):
admins, architects, developers, …
– Then work with traditional and non-traditional education partners on
curricula

If we want to teach it we have to define it
…and reinforce it
– (Continue to) fund research that gives academic community experience
with real world (ish) problems
– Internships, fellowships, awards, etc.
– Establishing and illuminating HPC career paths will help with recruitment
and retention (certifications? Maybe eventually…)

23. Next Steps for NITRD HEC Members
Define a set of career paths and skillsets
Map the union of current efforts, identify gaps
With educators, describe and develop curricula that
will produce new Providers and Consumers
Pilot new, more flexible methods of education and
workforce development that enable in-career
transitions
Continue to fund relevant academic research
problems, internships, graduate and post-doctoral
fellowships, and partnerships with industry and
academia.
...and share, share, share
