Dell: How HPC Serves a Vital Role in National Health & Wellness, Public Safety, Border and Commerce Security

When HPC and national security appear in the same sentence, thoughts typically turn towards military, defense and homeland security. While that’s a natural association, national security means more than just physical and border safety. Security also encompasses public health and safety, and secure systems for commerce and finance, which are critical to the well-being – […]

ExaWorks: Tested Component for HPC Workflows

ExaWorks is an Exascale Computing Project (ECP)–funded project that provides access to hardened and tested workflow components through a software development kit (SDK). Developers use this SDK and associated APIs to build and deploy production-grade, exascale-capable workflows on US Department of Energy (DOE) and other computers. The prestigious Gordon Bell Prize competition highlighted the success of the ExaWorks SDK when the Gordewinner and two of three finalists in the 2020 Association for Computing Machinery (ACM) Gordon Bell Special Prize for High Performance Computing–Based COVID-19 Research competition leveraged ExaWorks technologies.
