• Virtualized System Environments for Petascale Computing and Beyond

  This research project addresses the 3 majar challenges, namely sccalability, manageability, and ease-of-use , of petascale system software and application runtime environments. The approach taken through the development of a virtual system environment (VSE). In addition to providing a scalable and reliable ``sandbox'' environment for scientific application development on desktops and clusters, the VSE will offer an identical production environment for scientific application deployment on terascale and petascale HEC systems. The VSE concept enables "plug-and-play" supercomputing through desktop-to-cluster-to-petaflop computer system-level virtualization based on recent advances in hypervisor virtualization technologies. The overall goal of this effort is to advance the race for scientific discovery through computation by enabling day-one operation capability of newly installed systems and by improving productivity of scientific application development and deployment.
