Converging High Performance infrastructures: Supercomputers, clouds, accelerators
Oral Presentation
We want to report about a successful integration exercise between CINECA (PRACE Tier-0) Marconi KNL system and LHC processing.
A production-level system has been deployed using a 30 Mhours grant from the 18th Call for PRACE Project Access; this has needed modifications at multiple levels: experiments' WMS layers, site level access policies and routing, virtualization.
The success of the...

Converging High Performance infrastructures: Supercomputers, clouds, accelerators
Oral Presentation
The computing needs of LHC experiments in the next decades (the so-called High Luminosity LHC) are expected to increase substantially, due to the concurrent increases in the accelerator luminosity, in the selection rates and in the detectors' complexity. Many Funding Agencies are aiming to a consolidation of the national LHC computing infrastructures, via a merge with other large scale...

Converging High Performance infrastructures: Supercomputers, clouds, accelerators
Oral Presentation
In High Performance Computing (HPC) center that operates large-scale cluster system for providing computing resources for fee-paying users, it is important to reduce the power consumption. In order to save power of large-scale cluster system, the administrator of the HPC center stops a part of the computing nodes or changes them in a power-saving state with degradation of execution...

Converging High Performance infrastructures: Supercomputers, clouds, accelerators
Oral Presentation
Machine and Deep Learning techniques experienced an explosion in the adoption of a variety of HEP applications, ranging from event selection in trigger operations to end-user physics data analysis, as well as computing metadata based optimisations.
The range of applicability of such techniques in the High Energy Physics (HEP) context – with a particular accent on the experiments at the Large...

Virtual Reserach Environment (including Middleware, tools, services, workflow, … etc.)
Oral Presentation
With the development of peta- and exascale size computational systems there is growing interest in running Big Data and Artificial Intelligence (AI) applications on them.
Big Data and AI applications are implemented in Java, Scala, Python and other languages that are not widely used in High-Performance Computing (HPC) which is still dominated by C and Fortran. Moreover, they are based on...
