This project will add an agile locally and globally sharable HPCC (High-Performance Computing Cluster) hosted in a ScienceDMZ enclave, integrated with national science computing facilities, including the Open Science Grid (OSG), by creatively using recent advances in federated science networking and distributed systems’ virtualization open to regional faculty. The system is composed of 18 nodes with dual Intel Xeon Gold 6242R class CPUs (20 core), 192GB RAM, and an NVIDIA A30 class GPUs. Storage is spread across the nodes using CEPHThe project supports several interesting newly emerging collaborative HPCC workflows- scienceware as-a-service (SAS) and science-data-lakes (SDL), and intense real-time-computing (iRTC) besides supporting the HPC and HTC workflows. NSF-funded resources in this project are open to all faculty researchers in northeast Ohio colleges and their collaborators, including the faculty of all eight campuses of Kent who are in the network’s latency proximity and engaged in data-intensive collaborative workflows. In order to support high throughput and collaborative computing, the ScienceDMZ exercises a new model of unimpeded host-centric cauterized and federated security, as opposed to the traditional perimeter focused security approach. It is already fronted by a 100-Gbps Data Transfer Node (DTN) capable of ‘friction-free’ long-haul transferring massive datasets. The project directly contributes to NSF’s goals to foster innovation, integration, and engineering of new campus-level networking and cyberinfrastructure that can assertively support widely collaborative, multi-campus distributed massive-data driven research and harness largely untapped potential to share unused compute cycles and resources across the entire academic fabric, while leveraging a compelling set of science projects from a wide variety of disciplines.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

该项目将在SciencedMZ Enclave中托管的本地和全球可共享的HPCC（高性能计算集群），与国家科学计算设施集成在一起，包括开放科学电网（OSG），通过创造性地利用联邦科学网络和分布式系统对区域学院开放的虚拟化，通过创造性地利用开放科学网格（OSG）。该系统由18个节点组成，带有双Intel Xeon Gold 6242R类CPU（20核），192GB RAM和NVIDIA A30 A30 GPU。使用Cephthe Project在节点上散布存储，支持了几个有趣的新兴合作HPCC Workflows-Scienceware AS-AS-Service（SAS）和Science-Data-Lakes（SDL），以及强烈的实时计算（IRTC）（IRTC），除了支持HPC和HTC工作集。该项目中由NSF资助的资源向俄亥俄州东北学院的所有教师及其合作者开放，其中包括肯特八个校园的教职员工，他们在网络的潜伏期附近并从事数据密集型协作工作流程。为了支持高吞吐量和协作计算，SciencedMZ采用了一个新的模型，该模型是以统一的宿主为中心和联合的安全性，而不是传统的以外周长为中心的安全方法。它已经由100 Gbps数据传输节点（DTN）进行，能够“无摩擦”长途传输大量数据集。 The project directly contributes to NSF’s goals to foster innovation, integration, and engineering of new campus-level networking and cyberinfrastructure that can assertively support widely collaborative, multi-campus distributed massive-data driven research and harness largely untapped potential to share unused compute cycles and resources across the entire academic fabric, while leveraging a compelling set of science projects from a Wide variety of disciplines.This award反映了NSF的法定任务，并通过使用基金会的知识分子和更广泛的影响审查标准评估被认为是宝贵的支持。
