Our research projects vary in size, scope, and duration, but they share a focus on developing tools and methods that help LLNL deliver on its missions to the nation and, more broadly, advance the state of the art in scientific HPC. Projects are organized here in three ways: Active projects are those currently funded and regularly updated. Legacy projects are no longer actively developed. The A-Z option sorts all projects alphabetically, both active and legacy.
HPSS
Livermore’s archive leverages a hierarchical storage management application that runs on a cluster architecture that is user-friendly, extremely scalable, and lightning fast.
Automated Testing System
LLNL’s Python 3–based ATS tool provides scientific code teams with automated regression testing across HPC architectures.
RADIUSS
The RADIUSS project aims to lower cost and improve agility by encouraging adoption of our core open-source software products for use in institutional applications.
JCATS
One of the most widely used tactical simulations in the world, JCATS is installed in hundreds of U.S. military and civilian organizations, in NATO, and in more than 30 countries.
Deterrence in Cyberspace
LLNL’s cyber programs work across a broad sponsor space to develop technologies addressing sophisticated cyber threats directed at national security and civilian critical infrastructure.
MAPP
The MAPP incorporates multiple software packages into one integrated code so that multiphysics simulation codes can perform at scale on present and future supercomputers.
Vidya
This project advances research in physics-informed ML, invests in validated and explainable ML, creates an advanced data environment, builds ML expertise across the complex, and more.
VBL++
Upgraded with the C++ programming language, VBL provides high-fidelity models and high-resolution calculations of laser performance predictions.
RAJA Portability Suite
A Livermore-developed programming approach helps software to run on different platforms without major disruption to the source code.
Axom
Supported by the Advanced Simulation and Computing program, Axom focuses on developing software infrastructure components that can be shared by HPC apps running on different platforms.
ASC Proxy Apps
Proxy apps serve as specific targets for testing and simulation without the time, effort, and expertise that porting or changing most production codes would require.
fpzip
fpzip is a library for lossless or lossy compression of multidimensional floating-point arrays. It was primarily designed for lossless compression.
SAMRAI
The SAMRAI library is the code base in CASC for exploring application, numerical, parallel computing, and software issues associated with structured adaptive mesh refinement.
Maestro Workflow Conductor
The Maestro Workflow Conductor is a lightweight, open-source Python tool that can launch multi-step software simulation workflows in a clear, concise, consistent, and repeatable manner.
TEIMS
TEIMS manages collaborative tasks, site characterization, risk assessment, decision support, compliance monitoring, and regulatory reporting for the Environmental Restoration Department.
Alkemi
Simulation workflows for ALE methods often require a manual tuning process. We are developing novel predictive analytics for simulations and an infrastructure for integration of analytics.
FGPU
FGPU provides code examples that port FORTRAN codes to run on IBM OpenPOWER platforms like LLNL's Sierra supercomputer.
HYPRE
The hypre library's comprehensive suite of scalable parallel linear solvers makes large-scale scientific simulations possible by solving problems faster.
Umpire
Umpire is a resource management library that allows the discovery, provision, and management of memory on next-generation architectures.
Parallel Software Development Tools
Users need tools that address bottlenecks, work with programming models, provide automatic analysis, and overcome the complexities and changing demands of exascale architectures.
PRUNERS
The PRUNERS Toolset offers four novel debugging and testing tools to assist programmers with detecting, remediating, and preventing errors in a coordinated manner.
AIMS
AIMS (Analytics and Informatics Management Systems) develops integrated cyberinfrastructure for big climate data discovery, analytics, simulations, and knowledge innovation.
BLT
BLT software supports HPC software development with built-in CMake macros for external libraries, code health checks, and unit testing.
MacPatch
MacPatch provides LLNL with enterprise system management for desktop and laptop computers running Mac OS X.
