2. University of Chicago Department of Energy Applications In Hand:  FLASH (HDF-5)  ENZO (MPI-IO)  STAR Likely  Climate – Bill G to contact (Michalakas (NetCDF?), Drake (??))  Supernovae – Randy to contact (ORNL contact is Ross Toedte (rjt@ornl.gov))

3. University of Chicago Department of Energy Task Cooperation Testbed access  Probe (ORNL) and ChibaCity (ANL)  Look into making some compute cycles available as well to attract applications WAN Communication (TCP mods/replacements)  ANL, ORNL MPI-IO over HPSS  ANL, NWU, ORNL (+LLNL?) to evaluate GridFTP experience  LBNL, ANL PVFS/MPI-IO Hints  ANL, NWU Secondary/Tertiary Integration (pipelining)  ANL, NWU, LBNL, …

4. University of Chicago Department of Energy “Campaigns” Definition:  Multi-group efforts  Deliverables in the first year Candidates:  Hints through MPI-IOROMIOPVFS for applications  NetCDF MPI-IO (coord with climate apps)  Opportunities in HSM, WAN performance, others

5. University of Chicago Department of Energy Other Tasks Many enhancements to tools (PVFS, ROMIO, HRM) Investigations of APIs, strategies  Exploit applications for insight  Cross-cultural APIs (e.g., HSI, Grid IO, MPI- IO interactions) Year 2-3 tasks  Further enhancements (per proposal)  Opportunities: Secondary/Tertiary I/O pipelining
