Description
Opportunity : Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) operated by the Lawrence Livermore National Security, LLC (LLNS) under Contract No. DE-AC52-07NA27344 (Contract 44) with the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE), is a national security laboratory managed as a government-owned, contractor-operated (GOCO), federally funded research and development center (FFRDC). LLNL expertise and capabilities are available on a nonexclusive basis subject to DOE requirements and priorities, and subject to complementary research interests with LLNL. As a FFRDC, LLNL will be bound by fairness of opportunity requirements and Federal Acquisition Regulations (FARs). LLNL is offering the opportunity to collaborate with LLNL experts to jointly develop scalable scientific and engineering software for high performance computing platforms. Background: LLNL supports the nation's security by providing solutions to pressing scientific and engineering challenges with its leading supercomputing expertise and resources. The computational capabilities present in today's top supercomputers will be available for industrial application by the end of this decade, yet availability of highly scalable commercial codes and their integration into existing business workflows present barriers to adoption for the American private sector. Scaling existing scientific and engineering codes to run on next-generation platforms can reduce these barriers and enable software vendors and their customers to take advantage of high performance computing (HPC). Description: LLNL offers opportunities for joint software development to bridge the gap between the capabilities of Independent Software Vendors (ISVs) of scientific and engineering application codes and HPC users' needs. Successful relations will yield a greater number of commercial codes available to run on HPC platforms, software with expanded features and improved performance, and wider availability and usability of existing HPC codes. Software vendor engagements with LLNL may address such solutions as: § Scaling vendor codes to run on HPC platforms § Expanding vendor software capabilities with additional solver libraries and tool suites § Increasing research discovery through algorithm development and multi-physics integration § Optimizing code packages through performance and error analyses § Developing easy-to-use interfaces for LLNL's existing HPC codes § Coupling codes, potentially including codes owned by LLNL, for extended compatibility and capability § Producing reduced capability software packages for lighter use needs § Refining workflows for better business process integration Advantages: Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory provides access to the newest advanced hardware platforms and large-scale computing clusters for software development, testing and validation. LLNL also offers expertise in a wide range of computational sciences, algorithm development, large-scale optimization, error analyses, visualization and data analysis. Responses Sought: Software vendors of all sizes with scientific/engineering codes are eligible to respond. Engagement opportunities with U.S.-based companies are through LLNL's HPC Innovation Center (HPCIC). The HPCIC provides supercomputer access and connects industry with LLNL's computational scientists, engineers and computer scientists to help solve complex, high-impact problems across a broad range of scientific, technological and business fields. Work with companies on proprietary projects is possible through a variety of agreement mechanisms. Note: THIS IS NOT A PROCUREMENT. Parties interested in working with LLNL in this effort should provide a written statement of interest, which includes the following: 1. Company name and address. 2. The name, address, telephone number, and email of a point of contact. 3. A description of the technical or domain topic of interest, along with the relevant corporate expertise, experience, products and facilities that could support an engagement. Please submit your written statement of interest. Written responses should be submitted within one year from the date of this posting and directed to: Attn: Frederick Streitz, Ph.D. Director HPC Innovation Center Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory streitz1@llnl.gov FBO 291-15
