Reading this Report This report is the result of an ongoing process of improving reporting on the progress in delivering on our mission and realizing our goals. For a large, complex, highly-distributed project such as XSEDE, this is a considerable undertaking. This process has helped XSEDE improve as an organization and as a provider of services to the compute- and data-enabled science and engineering research and education community. XSEDE reports on its activities and progress by using a metrics-based approach. Based on feedback from our review panels we have redefined KPIs to be metrics that measure progress toward the high-level strategic goals. The key concept is not that the metrics [KPIs] themselves have a direct causal effect on eventual outcomes, but rather that the metrics are chosen so that actions and decisions which move the metrics in the desired direction also move the organization in the direction of the desired outcomes and goals. All other metrics will be termed Area Metrics. This is intended to focus the attention of external stakeholders on what we believe to be the best (key) indicators of progress toward our long- term strategic goals. The Executive Summary (§1) is intended to effectively and concisely communicate the status of the project toward delivery of the mission and realization of the vision by reaching three strategic goals. Stoplight indicators (§0) are used to visually provide a quick understanding of our assessment of overall project progress with respect to the strategic goals in light of our KPIs. The Science and Engineering Highlights (§2) provide a small selection of a continuing series of scientific and engineering research and education successes XSEDE has enabled. These successes are an ongoing testament to the importance of our services to the research community. Section three (§3), a discussion of goals and KPIs, provides the next level of detail in understanding project progress. It decomposes the strategic goals into sub-goals and discusses progress toward each of the sub-goals using KPIs that represent measures of impact to the scientific community where possible. As noted in the report, in some cases metrics for impact, outcome, or both are not currently being collected and in these cases the best available metric is used as the KPI. These first three sections take a project-wide view. A more detailed analysis of progress from the view of the areas responsible for supporting each of the sub-goals—and contributing toward the KPIs associated with those sub-goals—is provided by looking at each of the areas of the project in the remaining sections (§4, §5, §6, §7, §8, and §9). These sections also contain area highlights and additional Area Metrics that the area’s staff has deemed important. It is anticipated that this report is read in electronic form (PDF) using Adobe Reader®. There is extensive cross-linking to facilitate referencing content across the document. In general, all text that has blue underlining (e.g. §2) is clickable. Clicking on the underlined text will take you to the referenced section. These are set up to facilitate moving back and forth between the high level discussions in §1 and §3, to more detailed discussions regarding specific project areas in §4, §5, §6, §7, §8, and §9. As noted, this represents an ongoing effort at improvement and we welcome comments on how to improve any and all aspects of our reporting process.

1. Executive Summary Computing in science and engineering is now ubiquitous: digital technologies underpin, accelerate, and enable new, even transformational, research in all domains. Researchers continue to integrate an increasingly diverse set of distributed resources and instruments directly into their research and educational pursuits. Access to an array of integrated and well- supported high-end digital services is critical for the advancement of knowledge. XSEDE (the Extreme Science and Engineering Discovery Environment) is a socio-technical platform that integrates and coordinates advanced digital services within the national ecosystem to support contemporary science. This ecosystem involves a highly distributed, yet integrated and coordinated, assemblage of software, supercomputers, visualization systems, storage systems, networks, portals and gateways, collections of data, instruments and personnel with specific expertise. XSEDE fulfills the need for an advanced digital services ecosystem distributed beyond the scope of a single institution and provides a long-term platform to empower modern science and engineering research and education. As a significant contributor to this ecosystem, driven by the needs of the open research community, XSEDE substantially enhances the productivity of a growing community of scholars, researchers, and engineers. XSEDE federates with other high- end facilities and campus-based resources, serving as the foundation for a national e-science infrastructure with tremendous potential for enabling new advancements in research and education. Our vision is a world of digitally-enabled scholars, researchers, and engineers participating in multidisciplinary collaborations while seamlessly accessing computing resources and sharing data to tackle society’s grand challenges. Researchers use advanced digital resources and services every day to expand their understanding of our world. More pointedly, research now requires more than just supercomputers, and XSEDE represents a step toward a more comprehensive and cohesive set of advanced digital services through our mission: to substantially enhance the productivity of a growing community of scholars, researchers, and engineers through access to advanced digital services that support open research; and to coordinate and add significant value to the leading cyberinfrastructure resources funded by the NSF and other agencies. XSEDE has developed its strategic goals in a manner consistent with NSF’s strategies stated broadly in the Cyberinfrastructure Framework for 21st Century Science and Engineering1 vision document, and the more specifically relevant Advanced Computing Infrastructure: Vision and Strategic Plan2 document. 1.1. Strategic Goals To support our mission and to guide the project’s activities toward the realization of our vision, three strategic goals are defined: Deepen and Extend Use: XSEDE will deepen the use—make more effective use—of the advanced digital services ecosystem by existing scholars, researchers, and engineers, and extend the use to new communities. We will contribute to preparation—workforce development—of the current and next generation of scholars, researchers, and engineers in the use of advanced digital services via training, education, and outreach; and we will raise the general awareness of the value of advanced digital services.

PY6 IPR 1 Page 1 Advance the Ecosystem: Exploiting its internal efforts and drawing on those of others, XSEDE will advance the broader ecosystem of advanced digital services by creating an open and evolving e-infrastructure, and by enhancing the array of technical expertise and support services offered. Sustain the Ecosystem: XSEDE will sustain the advanced digital services ecosystem by ensuring and maintaining a reliable, efficient, and secure infrastructure, and providing excellent user support services. XSEDE will further operate an effective, productive, and innovative virtual organization. The strategic goals of XSEDE cover a considerable scope. To assure we are delivering our mission and to assess progress toward our vision, we have identified key metrics to measure our progress toward meeting each sub-goal. These key performance indicators (KPIs) are a high- level encapsulation of our project metrics that measure how well we are meeting each sub-goal. Planning is driven by our vision, mission, goals, and these metrics— which are in turn rooted in the needs and requirements of the communities we serve. The key concept is not that the KPIs themselves must have a direct causal effect on eventual outcomes, or measure eventual outcomes or long-term impacts, but rather that the KPIs are chosen so that actions and decisions which move the metrics in the desired direction also move the organization in the direction of the desired outcomes and goals. Table 3-1 below shows the project’s progress toward the three strategic goals and associated sub-goals. Status icons are used in the table as follows: A green status is defined as a strategic goal for which at least 90% of the targets for all KPIs are met. A yellow status is defined as a strategic goal within which at least 60% of the targets for all KPIs are met. A red status is a strategic goal with less than 60% of the KPI targets met.

A white status indicates there are currently no metrics tracked for this sub-goal or there is not complete data for any of the metrics tracked. Multiple indicators represent a strategic goal that has sub-goals for which there is incomplete data or that have metrics not currently tracked. In these cases, the second indicator is a qualitative assessment of the status provided in lieu of sufficient data or a formal metric being in place. 1.2. Summary & Project Highlights As reflected in Table 3-1, XSEDE2 is off to a very good start. Significant improvements were made during the transition from XSEDE1 to XSEDE2. Two items of note during the initial two months of PY6 come from the Community Engagement & Enrichment (CEE), and XSEDE Community Infrastructure (XCI) teams. CEE has implemented a new strategy for engaging underrepresented students by way of our inaugural challenge for advanced computing for social change taking place at SC16. This challenge resulted organically from the student program at XSEDE16. Details of this event can be found in §4. XCI delivered the new Community Software Repository (XCSR) to enable the broader XSEDE community to share and discover software information, and to facilitate integration of new software into the XSEDE ecosystem. See §6 for additional information.

Another project highlights the implications of behind-the-meter battery energy storage for U.S. electric grid operations.

PY6 IPR 1 Page 4 2. Science and Engineering Highlights 2.1. Promising Drug Leads Identified to Combat Heart Disease (Yinglong Miao, UC San Diego) Using a unique computational approach to rapidly sample, in millisecond time intervals, proteins in their natural state of gyrating, bobbing, and weaving, a research team from UC San Diego and Monash University in Australia has identified promising drug leads that may selectively combat heart disease, from arrhythmias to cardiac failure. Reported in the September 5, 2016 Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS) Early Edition, the researchers used the computing power of Gordon and Comet, based at the San Diego Supercomputer Center (SDSC) at UC San Diego; and Stampede, at the Texas Advanced Computing Center at the University of Texas at Austin, to perform an unprecedented survey of protein structures using accelerated molecular dynamics or aMD—a method that performs a more Figure 1: The M2 muscarinic complete sampling of the myriad shapes and acetylcholine receptor (orange ribbons) conformations that a target protein molecule may go plays a key role in regulating the human through.

That’s because the genetic sequence of M2 mAChR’s primary ‘orthosteric’ binding site is “highly conserved,” and found in at least four other receptor types that are widely spread in the body, yielding unwanted results. For this reason, drug designers are seeking a different approach, homing in on molecular targets or so-called “allosteric binding sites” that reside away from the receptor’s primary binding site and are built around a more diverse genetic sequence and structure than their counterpart ‘orthosteric’ binding sites. Essentially, allosteric modulators act as a kind of cellular dimmer- switch that, once turned on, ‘fine tunes’ the activation and pharmacological profile of the target receptor. In particular, drug designers have begun to aggressively search for allosteric modulators to fine- tune medications that bind to G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs), the largest and most diverse group of membrane receptors in , , fungi and protozoa. These cell surface receptors act like an inbox for messages in the form of light energy, hormones and neurotransmitters, and perform an incredible array of functions in the human body.

PY6 IPR 1 Page 5 In fact, between one-third to one-half of all marketed drugs act by binding to GPCRs, treating diseases including cancer, asthma, schizophrenia, Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s disease, and heart disease. More Targeted Therapies Though many of the GPCR drugs have made their way to the medicine cabinet, most, including M2 mAChR targeted drugs, exhibit side effects owing to their lack of specificity. All these drugs target the orthosteric binding sites of receptors, thus creating the push to find more targeted therapies based on allosteric sites. Enter accelerated molecular dynamics and supercomputing. As described in this latest study, called accelerated structure-based design of chemically diverse allosteric modulators of a muscarinic G protein-coupled receptor, some 38 lead compounds were selected from a database of compounds from the National Cancer Institute, using computationally enhanced simulations to account for binding strength and receptor flexibility. About half of these compounds exhibited the hallmarks of an allosteric behavior in subsequent in vitro experiments, with about a dozen showing strong affinity to the M2 mAChR binding site. Of these, the researchers highlighted two showing both strong affinity and high selectivity in studies of cellular behavior. These cutting- edge experiments were performed by collaborators from the Monash Institute of Pharmaceutical Sciences. “To our knowledge, this study demonstrates for the first time an unprecedented successful structure-based approach to identify chemically diverse and selective GPCR allosteric modulators with outstanding potential for further structure-activity relationship studies,” the researchers wrote. 2.2. Tornadogenesis (Amy McGovern, University of Oklahoma) A team based at the University of Oklahoma is using computational thinking to help understand and solve the scientific problems surrounding the formation of tornadoes by trying to identify precursors of tornadoes in supercell simulations by generating high resolution simulations of these thunderstorms using TACC's Stampede supercomputer. In addition to high resolution simulations, the team is also using a combination of data mining and visualization techniques as they explore the factors that separate tornado formation from tornado failure. The team has been working with ECSS scientific visualization expert Greg Foss at the Texas Advanced Computing Center (TACC). Serving as a bridge between science research and the lay person, Foss says he enjoys working through XSEDE and highlighting the value and validity of the program. "I believe in our mission and I believe in the visualization field. It's quite a sense of accomplishment to help our users and even be a part of the science." For this project, Foss says that he's learned more about all of the aspects of weather than any of his six past weather projects.

PI Amy McGovern offered a few thoughts about the Figure 2: Negative gradient threshold importance of XSEDE and her work with Foss: “XSEDE is (blue) depicts primary (big part) and fabulous. We’ve been using XSEDE resources for years. I low-level (lower tube part) updrafts. started out with resources at my university and then Strong vorticity (red) is wrapping into the primary updraft. The scientists quickly outgrew what they had. They pointed me to hypothesize the evolution of this XSEDE. I started out at NICS using Darter, and when that gradient differs between tornadic and went away, I started using Stampede at TACC. These tornado failure storms.

PY6 IPR 1 Page 6 resources are fundamental … you can’t do this kind of data mining on your PC. Greg (Foss) comes at the problem from a completely different perspective, and provides new ways of looking at the data that you wouldn’t have thought of in the beginning. Once you get into a domain, it’s easy to think, ‘This is the only way to look at it,’ but then someone else comes along and asks, ‘Why are you doing it like that?’” 2.3. Implications of Behind-the Meter Battery Energy Storage for U.S. Electric Grid Operations (Jay Apt, Carnegie Mellon University) State and federal policies encourage adoption of stationary battery storage to help integrate renewable generation and provide valuable services to the electric grid. Storage is being installed both on the utility side of the customer meter at the transmission/distribution level (“grid-scale”), and at individual building sites, which is referred to as “behind the meter” (BTM). The literature has focused mostly storage by electricity providers but not industrial or private BTM users, with both the economic incentive structure and the net carbon emissions of BTM batteries largely unknown. Michael Fisher, working in the Jay Apt group at Carnegie Mellon University, used PSC’s interim Greenfield system/DXC and, more recently, XSEDE resource Bridges at PSC, to create an optimization model to investigate how a fleet of BTM batteries would behave using metered load data from over 600 commercial and industrial buildings. The Greenfield work was instrumental in adapting the group’s previous, personal-computer-based model to the Unix/HPC environment. They cite XSEDE ECSS expert Roberto Gomez of PSC as instrumental in optimizing the group’s MATLAB-based workflow in the multi-core environment, a necessity for running parallel Figure 3: Net CO2 emission rates assuming the system can predict usage computations on many buildings in order to bring the perfectly (colored bars), compared with runtime down and allow testing of different settings of results for an imperfect forecast based the simulation parameters.

Results are from group’s subsequent use of PSC’s Bridges system.

PY6 IPR 1 Page 7 3. Discussion of Strategic Goals and Key Performance Indicators The strategic goals of XSEDE (§1.1) cover a considerable scope. Additionally, the specific activities within our scope are often very detailed; therefore, to ensure that this significant and detailed scope will ultimately deliver our mission and realize our vision, we decompose the three strategic goals into components or sub-goals to be considered individually. In determining the best measures of progress toward each of the sub-goals, KPIs that correlate to impact on the scientific community are used. These often pair measurements of outcome with an assessment of quality or impact to provide both a sense of scope and significance of the supporting activities. In some cases, metrics for impact, outcome, or both are not currently being collected. In these cases, the best available metric is used. 3.1. Deepen and Extend Use XSEDE will 1) deepen the use—make more effective use—of the advanced digital services ecosystem by existing scholars, researchers, and engineers and 2) extend the use to new communities. We will 3) contribute to preparation—workforce development—of scholars, researchers, and engineers in the use of advanced digital technologies via training, education, and outreach; and we will 4) raise the general awareness of the value of advanced digital research services. 3.1.1. Deepening Use to Existing Communities Although efforts to identify new technologies and new service providers along with efforts to evolve the e-infrastructure and enhance the research prowess of current and future researchers all serve to also deepen use, the collaborative, yearlong work done to help research teams more effectively and broadly use the ecosystem is the best indicator of deeper use. These efforts enable increased scale and efficiency of usage and allow use of new capabilities for the delivery of science. The project has chosen three metrics (Table 3-1) that together measure the scope, quality, and impact of these activities: 1) the total number of projects completed by the Extended Collaborative Support Services team through work with research teams, community codes, and gateways and the average ratings for 2) satisfaction with and 3) overall impact from the ECSS work. Satisfaction and overall impact are scores provided by the PIs of the projects on a 1-5 scale following project completion.

Extending Use to New Communities New communities are defined as new fields of science, industry, and under-represented communities. New fields of science are those that represent less than 1% of XSEDE Resource Allocation Committee (XRAC) allocations. The Novel & Innovative Projects (NIP) team and the Broadening Participation team both work to bring advanced digital services to new communities. XSEDE measures both the number of new users and the number of sustained users on research projects from under-represented communities and non-traditional disciplines of XSEDE resources and services as the indicators of progress (Table 3-2).

If these trends hold up over the course of PY6, we will increase the targets for PY7 accordingly. 3.1.3. Prepare the Current and Next Generation Part of XSEDE’s mission is to provide a broad community of existing and future researchers with access and training to use advanced digital services via the sub-goal of preparing the current and next generation of computationally-savvy researchers. While many activities support this sub- goal, such as the various Champion (§4.6), Student Engagement (§4.4), and Education (§4.2) programs, the training offered through Community Engagement & Enrichment (CEE) impacts

PY6 IPR 1 Page 9 the most people directly. This, and a complementary measure of impact as indicated by those same individuals, are therefore considered the key indicators (Table 3-3) of performance toward this goal.

The numbers reported include only registered, verified, attendees who could be identified by XSEDE User Portal (XUP) name; the actual number of attendees is higher than shown here. We now have tools to enter the data into the database and are working on entering backlog data. This more accurate data will be provided for all future reports and data for this period will be updated.. 3.1.4. Raising Awareness While many PY6 activities, such as our Workforce Development (§4.2), User Engagement (§4.3) and Broadening Participation (§4.4) efforts, and the visibility of our Champions and other Campus Engagement (§4.6) activities, contribute to our efforts to measure our ability to raise the general awareness of the value of advanced digital research services, we have chosen to focus on outcomes in four areas (Table 3-4): website, social media, public relations, and media hits. Desirable trends in these key outcomes can be correlated to success for this sub-goal.

PY6 Q1 includes September-October 2016. We continue to meet our public facing metrics through the website and social media, and are doing extremely well with respect to funneling users and potential users through the XSEDE User Portal. As we approach the end of PY6, we will reevaluate our targets to ensure that we encourage growth and impact. 3.2. Advance the Ecosystem Exploiting its internal efforts and drawing on those of others, XSEDE will advance the broader ecosystem of advanced digital services by 1) creating an open and evolving e-infrastructure, and by 2) enhancing the array of technical expertise and support services offered. 3.2.1. Create an Open and Evolving e-Infrastructure External factors, such as the number of XSEDE Federation members and the variety of services they provide alongside internal efforts, such as Operations (§7) of critical infrastructure and services and the evaluation and integration of new capabilities, all affect the evolution of the e- infrastructure. While we actively seek new Federation members and Service Providers, and partnerships with national and international cyberinfrastructure projects, we view our role as connector of these elements to be the most impactful. Thus, XSEDE focuses on the number of new capabilities made available for production deployment along with the satisfaction rating of all XSEDE Community Infrastructure (XCI) services as indicators of performance with respect to this sub-goal (Table 3-5).

PY6 Q1 includes September-October 2016. The KPI for “Number of new capabilities made available for production deployment” is below its target value. This is due to the fact that we have not fully delivered any new XSEDE2 Use Cases because we have been finishing up XSEDE1 deliverables. The KPI for “average satisfaction rating of XCI services” meets its target value. 3.2.2. Enhance the Array of Technical Expertise and Support Services To enhance the technical expertise of our staff to offer an evolving set of support services, we will continue many activities including workshops, symposia, and training events hosted by Extended Collaborative Support Services (ECSS) and Service Providers (§5.6). The average rating by staff for training will continue to be a KPI; the staff climate survey question that measures this has been changed to focus on staff having the training they need, instead of staff turning to XSEDE training to fulfill these needs (Table 3-6). This represents a change in approach to staff training that reflects budget constraints, where we will leverage existing training offered by the Service Providers, universities, and professional associations alongside our training to enhance the expertise of staff.

PY6 Q1 includes September-October 2016. In 2015 the average rating of staff regarding how well-prepared they feel to perform their jobs was 3.66, this has improved to 3.70 in 2016. 3.3. Sustain the Ecosystem XSEDE will sustain the advanced digital services ecosystem by 1) ensuring and maintaining a reliable, efficient, and secure infrastructure, and 2) providing excellent user support services. Furthermore, XSEDE will operate an 3) effective, 4) productive, and 5) innovative virtual organization.

PY6 IPR 1 Page 12 3.3.1. Provide Reliable, Efficient, and Secure Infrastructure Many activities support this sub-goal—such as User Information & Interfaces (§4.5), Security (§7.2), Data Transfer Services (§7.3), Systems Operations and Support (§7.5), support for Allocations (§8.2), and Allocations, Accounting & Account Management (§8.3)—but perhaps the truest measure of an infrastructure’s reliability is its robustness as reflected by sustained availability. Thus, the KPI for this sub-goal is a composite measure of the availability of XSEDE infrastructure components and the number of hours of downtime with direct user impacts from a security incident (Table 3-7). The composite measure is a geometric mean of the availability of critical enterprise services and the XRAS allocations request management service.

PY6 Q1 includes September-October 2016. KPIs for this area have met or exceeded targets. 3.3.2. Provide Excellent User Support Although nearly every group in the organization has some support function, we have chosen to focus on metrics with respect to two primary support interfaces to the community: the XSEDE Operations Center (XOC) metrics with respect to ticket resolutions times and the average satisfaction rating of the allocations process. The XOC is the frontline centralized support group that either resolves or escalates tickets to the appropriate resolution center depending on the request. Two KPIs are measured (Table 3-8): the mean time to resolution on support tickets that are resolved by the XOC or routed to, and resolved by, other XSEDE areas, and the average satisfaction rating for the allocations process measured via a quarterly survey of users who have interacted with the allocations request system and the allocations process more generally.

PY6 Q1 includes September-October 2016. Please see RAS (§8) for detailed explanation of below target number for Q1 for user satisfaction. 3.3.3. Effective and Productive Virtual Organization During the first five years of XSEDE, in conjunction with developing a methodology for driving and assessing performance excellence, XSEDE adopted the Baldrige Criteria3 and has assessed and applied applicable criteria from all seven criteria by that methodology. These include annual reviews of the vision, mission, strategic goals, project-wide processes and standards (KPIs and area metrics); user and staff surveys (§4.3, §9.5); stakeholder communications (§9.2); advisory boards (§9.1); community engagement (§4); workforce enhancement (§4.2); and the analysis of organizational data that leads to organizational learning, strategic improvement and innovation. Thus, XSEDE has chosen to monitor its continuous improvement efforts as an organizational measurement of recommendations addressed by the relevant project areas (Table 3-9). The idea here is that a stable or expanding number of improvements shows that XSEDE continues to systematically evaluate the organization and make informed, proactive improvements.

As we are only two months into PY6, the recommendations for the most recent Climate Survey are being reviewed and considered across all Level 2 and Level 3 areas. Future IPRs will contain updates to this KPI 3.3.4. Innovative Virtual Organization Measuring innovation for an organization like XSEDE (or for organizations in general) is difficult and represents an area of open research. A partial measure is the number of staff publications produced since this shows that XSEDE staff is involved in novel activities that achieve peer- reviewed publication. Additionally, after much thought and discussion both internally and with external stakeholders and advisors, we have identified two additional indicators that strongly correlate to innovation: 1) the ratio of proactive organizational improvements to those that were

3 http://www.nist.gov/baldrige/

PY6 IPR 1 Page 14 reactive and 2) the number of improvements that are innovative or lead to innovations. The first indicator is a measurement of organizational maturity and agility; the second measures innovative actions directly (Table 3-10). While these provide some indication of innovation, they are still not satisfactory. These KPIs will continue to be the subject of an open conversation within the organization and with stakeholders and advisors as XSEDE assesses these measurements and how to best quantify innovation. In particular, this will be discussed in earnest within the Strategic Planning, Policy and Evaluation team (§9.5).

PY6 Q1 includes September-October 2016. We are on-track to meet the staff publication target. The high ratio of proactive to reactive improvements is attributed to the extra effort of making improvements as part of the transition from XSEDE1 to XSEDE2.

4. Community Engagement & Enrichment (WBS 2.1) At the core of Community Engagement & Enrichment (CEE) is the researcher, broadly defined to include anyone who uses or may potentially use the array of resources and services offered by XSEDE. The CEE team is dedicated to actively engaging a broad and diverse cross-section of the open science community, bringing together those interested in using, integrating with, enabling, and enhancing the national cyberinfrastructure. Vital to the CEE mission is the persistent relationship with existing and future users, including allocated users, training participants, XSEDE collaborators, and campus personnel. CEE will unify public offerings to provide a more consistent, clear, and concise message about XSEDE resources and services, and bring together those aspects of XSEDE that have as their mission teaching, informing, and engaging those interested in advanced cyberinfrastructure. The five components of CEE are Workforce Development (§4.2), which includes Training, Education and Student Preparation, User Engagement (§4.3), Broadening Participation (§4.4), User Interfaces & Online Information (§4.5) and Campus Engagement (§4.6). These five teams will ensure routine collection and reporting of XSEDE’s actions to address user requirements. They will provide a consistent suite of web-based information and documentation and engage with a broad range of campus personnel to ensure that XSEDE’s resources and services complement those offered by campuses. Additionally, CEE teams will expand workforce development efforts to enable many more researchers, faculty, staff, and students to make effective use of local, regional, and national advanced digital resources. CEE will expand efforts to broaden the diversity of the community utilizing advanced digital resources. The CEE team will tightly coordinate with the rest of XSEDE, particularly Extended Collaborative Support Services (§5), Resource Allocation Services (§8), XSEDE Community Infrastructure (§6), and External Relations (§9.2). CEE is focused on personal interactions, ensuring that existing users, potential users and the general public have sufficient access to materials and have a positive and effective experience with XSEDE public offerings and frontline user support. As such, the CEE area metrics are designed to broadly assess this performance. CEE has focused on metrics that will quantify how many users in aggregate are benefiting from XSEDE resources and services. Additionally, CEE has focused on how well the user base is sustained over time and how well training offerings evolve with changing user community needs.

PY6 Q1 includes September-October 2016. CEE is either on target or far exceeding our metrics. We have done extremely well reaching out to new and potential users in both mainstream and under-represented users. The Training team has done a tremendous job of examining metrics to ensure reproducibility and to ensure that we leverage our resources to maximize impact. We continue to meet and make progress towards our public facing metrics through the website and are doing extremely well with respect to funneling users and potential users through the XSEDE user portal. As we approach the end of PY6, we will reevaluate our metrics to ensure that we encourage growth and impact. We have implemented an exciting new strategy for engaging under-represented students with our inaugural challenge for advanced computing for social change taking place at SC16. This challenge resulted organically from the student program at XSEDE16, where diversity/inclusion were a major pillar of the conference. We know that our student population, by and large

PY6 IPR 1 Page 17 Millennials and Post-Millennials, are now the largest, most diverse sector of our population and represent the largest generation to date. According to a report analyzing the millennials by The Council of Economic Advisers in 2014, these two generations have grown up in an age of pervasive and often-times ubiquitous technology, violence, and with the introduction of the internet, information overload. They are more likely to be constantly connected to their smart phones and have multiple means of communicating with their peers via social media. In sharp contrast, they also express a greater value to the role they play in their communities, including a close relationship with their families and they rate quality of life as being very important as well as a strong desire to make a positive social impact on their own children and communities and society at large.4 While there are a number of initiatives that target the general issues of under-representation in STEM fields, they don’t directly address the needs of the advanced research computing community and scientists using advanced computing resources and tools to solve our nation’s grand challenges. Our focus on advanced computing for social change provides opportunities to bring together multicultural, diverse groups of students and researchers to work as a team on issues affecting social change, leveraging what those studying organizational dynamics have known for some time. A team’s ability to innovate requires the integration of different perspectives, knowledge, experiences and backgrounds, allowing us to break through creative barriers and apply resulting innovations to problems that are too large to be solved by any one team member. The inaugural challenge will take place at SC16 and will include 19 students from a diverse set of backgrounds, genders, and races. Another major success in the CEE area is the configuration and deployment of a User Requirements project in JIRA for tracking user issues. The User Interfaces & Online Information team has done an excellent job of working directly with the User Engagement team to begin to put the tracking mechanism in production. This includes a completed configuration of JIRA to gather and organize user requirements that are gathered from multiple sources – surveys, tickets, user interviews, etc. 4.1. CEE Director’s Office (WBS 2.1.1) The CEE Director’s Office has been established to provide the necessary oversight to ensure the greatest efficiency and effectiveness of the CEE area. This oversight includes providing direction to the L3 management team, coordination of, and participation in, CEE planning activities and reports through the area’s Project Manager. The Director’s Office also attends and supports the preparation of project level reviews and activities. The CEE Director’s Office will continue to manage and set direction for CEE activities and responsibilities. They will contribute to and attend bi-weekly senior management team calls, contribute to the project level plan, schedule, and budget, contribute to XSEDE quarterly, annual, and other reports as required by the NSF and attend XSEDE quarterly and annual meetings. 4.2. Workforce Development (WBS 2.1.2) The Workforce Development mission is to provide a continuum of learning resources and services designed to address the needs and requirements of researchers, educators, developers, integrators, and students utilizing advanced digital resources. This includes providing professional development for the XSEDE team members.

4 The Council of Economic Advisers. (2014). 15 Economic Facts About Millennials. Washington, DC: Executive Office of the President of the United States.

PY6 IPR 1 Page 18 Workforce Development provides an integrated suite of training, education, and student preparation activities to address formal and informal learning about advanced digital resources addressing the needs of researchers, developers, integrators, IT staff, XSEDE staff, faculty, and undergraduate and graduate students. CEE – Workforce Development will provide business and industry with access to XSEDE’s workforce development efforts including training services and student internships that have proven beneficial to industry in the first five years of the project. Workforce Development is comprised of three areas: Training, Education and Student Preparation. The Training team will develop and deliver training programs to enhance the skills of the national open science community and ensure productive use of XSEDE’s cyberinfrastructure. The Education team will work closely with Training and Student Preparation to support faculty in all fields of study with their incorporation of advanced digital technology capabilities within the undergraduate and graduate curriculum. The Student Preparation program will actively recruit students to use the aforementioned training and education offerings to enable the use of XSEDE resources by undergraduate and graduate students to motivate and prepare them to pursue advanced studies and careers to advance discovery and scholarly studies. The Training metrics have been dramatically revised based on lessons learned. Beginning with PY6, the metrics will include the number of people who attended training rather than the number of people who registered. This will more accurately represent the number of people who are benefitting from the training offerings. Further, since the learning environment and usage modalities for synchronous (which includes in-person and web-cast events) and asynchronous (which includes usage of CI-Tutor and Cornell Virtual Workshop tutorials) training are very different in nature, the number of people benefitting from these will be reported separately. In addition, the number of unique people benefitting from the full range of training offerings, as well as the number of people benefitting from each of the synchronous and asynchronous training offerings, will be reported. These metrics will better represent the impact of training among the community. The Education metrics are consistent with those reported in previous years. They will include the adoption and incorporation of computation and data-enabled techniques and methods within the curriculum, and the sharing of course materials. This will include offerings of certificate and degree programs, new and modified course modules, the number of modules shared with the community, and the downloads of course modules for adoption and/or adaptation in courses. The Student Preparation metrics will include the number of students engaged in utilizing XSEDE resources and services through internships, their participation in the annual XSEDE Conference, or working on XSEDE projects. Also included will be the number of under-represented students who are involved.

The numbers reported include only registered, verified, attendees who could be identified by XUP portal name; the actual number of attendees is higher than shown here. We now have tools to enter the data into the database and are working on entering backlog data and setting up database access and queries for future reports. We will update the reported number in the next IPR. The number of students benefiting from XSEDE resources exceeded the quarterly goal of 50 students by 226 students for a total of 276 students. This is attributed to the high level of engagement with 98 students at XSEDE16. Separately, and not included in this count, XSEDE staff talked with 50 students at the Tapia Conference who were interested in learning more about Blue Waters, XSEDE, and opportunities for students to become involved. Forty-two percent of new students benefiting from XSEDE resources and services are under- represented students. While this number falls short of meeting the goal of 50%, it mirrors the 42% of under-represented minorities (URMs) enrolled in our nation’s postsecondary education system of two-year through PhD professional degree granting institutions. Our 42% URM student users represents aggressive URM recruitment efforts considering only 19% of students enrolled in engineering are female, 8% are Hispanic or Latino, and 5% are African American or Black. The numbers are significantly lower in computer science. It is important to note that URM students benefiting from XSEDE resources and services represent 77% of new URM users. Overall, workforce development is on track to accomplishing its goals while working diligently to meet the targets. 4.3. User Engagement (WBS 2.1.3) The mission of the User Engagement (UE) team is to capture community needs, requirements and recommendations for improvements to XSEDE’s resources and services, and report to the national community how their feedback is being addressed. In PY6 and beyond, XSEDE will place greater emphasis on maintaining consistent user contact, traceability in tracking user issues, and closing the feedback loop. The UE team will track three area metrics: the number of active and new PIs that are contacted quarterly, the number of user issues that are identified via PI responses to the contact emails that require follow-up, and the number of user issues that are resolved within each reporting period. The UE team will maintain quarterly contact with all active research teams via email to the project PI to ensure the team is making progress, any obstacles to the team are being addressed,

PY6 IPR 1 Page 21 and user requirements are being gathered. Startup PIs will be contacted 15-45 days after their allocation start date and new and renewal project PIs will be contacted 15-30 days following the start of the new allocation period. Also, active PIs within their second, third and fourth quarters of their allocation period will be contacted in the first month of each allocation quarter. Issues that are raised in response to these contact emails will be logged and tickets generated on the user’s behalf if further action is required. Tickets will be handled by the UE team, assigned to another XSEDE team, or assigned to the appropriate Service Provider(s) for resolution. The UE team will track tickets to ensure resolution. UE will also use the ticket data to identify community needs and file Use Cases for further follow-up by the XCI area. Action items resulting from issues and community needs will be recorded and tracked along with the status and this information will be made available to the user community. The number of user issues/requirements resolved within each reporting period will be included in each quarterly report.

PY6 Q1 includes September-October 2016. 1 Resolution may be dependent upon SPs and other XSEDE groups. All user contact emails scheduled within the reporting period were sent: August and September startup PIs, PIs with allocations that began on October 1, and all other PIs with active allocations (PIs in Q2, Q3, or Q4 of their allocation period). The percentage of user requirements resolved is well below our annual target of 100% but as noted, resolution of these items is dependent upon SPs and other XSEDE groups. A lesson learned is that contact emails will be sent earlier to PIs in the “all other” category to allow for resolving issues in a more timely fashion, resulting in more accurate metric reporting. 4.4. Broadening Participation (WBS 2.1.4) Broadening Participation will engage under-represented minority researchers from domains that are not traditional users of HPC and from Minority Serving Institutions. This target audience

PY6 IPR 1 Page 22 ranges from potential users with no computational experience to computationally savvy researchers, educators, Champions, and administrators that will promote change at their institutions for increased use of advanced digital services for research and teaching. Broadening Participation will continue the most effective recruitment activities— conference exhibiting, campus visits, and regional workshops—while increasing national impact through new partnerships and the utilization of lower cost awareness strategies to continue the growth in new users from under-represented communities. The Diversity Forum and the Minority Research Community listservs and community calls focus on user persistence in their use of XSEDE services and their deepening engagement through participation in committees such as the User Advisory Committee (UAC) and XRAC, participation in Champions, bridging, and other programs. Persistent institutional engagement is enabled by curriculum reform and larger numbers of researchers adopting the use of advanced digital resources as a standard research method. The “Number of new under-represented individuals using XSEDE resources and services” is defined as the number of first-time awardees of XSEDE compute resources or an “allocation” (i.e. Startup, Research, Education, etc.) from underrepresented communities including women and racial/ethnic domestic minorities in HPC as well as anyone from a Minority Serving Institution (MSI) as defined by the Carnegie Classification of Institutions of Higher Education are tracked. The “Number of sustained under-represented individuals using XSEDE resources and services” is the number of awardees of XSEDE compute resources or an “allocation” (i.e. Startup, Research, Education, etc.) from underrepresented communities including women and racial/ethnic domestic minorities in HPC as well as anyone from a Minority Serving Institution (MSI) as defined by the Carnegie Classification of Institutions of Higher Education are tracked that access their “allocation” during the time period. For both metrics, “Longitudinal assessment of inclusion in XSEDE” and “Longitudinal assessment of diversity in XSEDE”, a mean index score is generated from annual Staff Climate Study responses to items within the "Inclusion" and “Diversity” dimension of the study, respectively.

The number of new and sustained URM users are about 8% of all the new and sustained users, and the number of new URM users in the first two months exceeded the target for the year. Contributing factors include the strong recruitment and awareness at XSEDE16 and exhibiting at the ACM Richard Tapia Celebration of Diversity in Computing, a student focused conference. Thus, students constituted 77% of the new URM users. (See the student program metrics in the Workforce Development discussion in Section 4.2.) The number of sustained users is on track to meet or exceed the target. It is anticipated students will continue to be a larger percentage of the URM sustained users as URM student population is growing faster than the URM faculty population. The diversity forum is being established and the climate survey is conducted annually. Thus, there are no metrics to report at this time for inclusion and equity. 4.5. User Interfaces & Online Information (WBS 2.1.5) User Interfaces & Online Information (UII) is committed to enabling the discovery, understanding, and effective utilization of XSEDE’s powerful capabilities and services. UII has immediate impact on XSEDE users from day one, providing them with an information rich website, the XSEDE User Portal, and a uniform set of user documentation. The UII team will track six area metrics: number of new users of XSEDE resources and services, number of sustained users of XSEDE resources and services, number of unique visitors to the website and User Portal, and user satisfaction rating of the website, User Portal, and online documentation. The number of new users of XSEDE resources and services is comprised of the number of new XSEDE User Portal accounts that are created in PY6. The number of sustained users of XSEDE resources and services is the total number of users who have logged into the XSEDE User Portal during PY6, including new users that created accounts during PY6. The number of pageviews to the website and User Portal will be tracked using Google Analytics. This is defined as both new and returning users that have at least one session within the selected time period. User satisfaction of the website, User Portal and user documentation will be a rating from the annual XSEDE User Survey. If additional surveys such as micro-surveys are conducted to measure satisfaction, they will be shared in the appropriate quarterly report.

We believe the website did not meet its metrics due to the shortened quarter. We expect to meet

PY6 IPR 1 Page 25 the metrics on both of these for future quarters. For the remaining metrics that weren’t met we suspect this is also due to the shortened quarter and will evaluate any changes that need to be done if future quarters do not meet the mark. 4.6. Campus Engagement (WBS 2.1.6) The Campus Engagement program promotes and facilitates the effective participation of a diverse national community of campuses in the application of advanced digital resources and services to accelerate discovery, enhance education, and foster scholarly achievement. Campus Engagement, via the Campus Champions, works directly with institutions across the US both to facilitate computing and data-intensive research and education, nationally and with collaborators worldwide, and to expand the scale, scope, ambition and impact of these endeavors. This is done by increasing scalable, sustainable institutional uptake of advanced digital services from providers at all levels (workgroup, institutional, regional, national, international), fostering a broader, deeper, more agile, more sustainable and more diverse nationwide cyberinfrastructure ecosystem across all levels, and cultivating inter-institutional interchange of resources, expertise and support. Campus Engagement’s core approach is to assist researchers and educators in identifying and facilitating the use of the most appropriate advanced digital capabilities for their extant and emerging needs, including workgroup, institutional, regional, national and/or international level (which is anticipated in a subset of cases to include XSEDE resources). Campus Engagement’s activities include, but are not limited to, fostering the expansion of both the scale and the scope of the national and worldwide community of cyberinfrastructure practitioners, both via internal initiatives and in collaboration with other related efforts. CE also aims to assist with the establishment and expansion of consortia (for example, intra-state, regional, domain-specific) that collaborate to better serve the needs of their advanced computing stakeholders. XSEDE teams (e.g., Service Providers, diversity leadership, Champions) will be leveraged to both reach appropriate stakeholders and provide them with the information and capabilities they need. CE will also inform institutional leadership about the value proposition of advanced digital services and the impact of these capabilities on research and education outcomes, as a driver for stimulating investment across all scales. Metrics include the number of institutions with a Champion, the number of unique contributors to the Champion email list and the number of activities that (i) expand the emerging CI workforce and/or (ii) improve the extant CI workforce, participated in by members of the Campus Engagement team. The number of institutions with Champions represents the breadth of the reach of the Campus Engagement/Champion program. The email list metric demonstrates active involvement across institutions and shows the extent to which peer mentoring is valued. The number of activities that expand and/or improve the extant CI workforce demonstrates the efforts of the team to nurture continued development of the CI workforce across the community.

Since the latter two are new metrics, we plan to adjust our targets after PY6 to better reflect our progress and goals.

PY6 IPR 1 Page 27 5. Extended Collaborative Support Services (WBS 2.2) The Extended Collaborative Support Service (ECSS) improves the productivity of the XSEDE user community both through successful, meaningful collaborations and well-planned training activities. The goal is to optimize applications, improve work and data flows, increase effective use of the XSEDE digital infrastructure and broadly expand the XSEDE user base by engaging members of under-represented communities and domain areas. The ECSS program provides professionals who can be part of a collaborative team—dedicated staff who develop deep, collaborative relationships with XSEDE users—helping them make best use of XSEDE resources to advance their work. These professionals possess combined expertise in many fields of computational science and engineering. They have a deep knowledge of underlying computer systems and of the design and implementation principles for optimally mapping scientific problems, codes, and middleware to these resources. ECSS includes experts in not just the traditional use of advanced computing systems but also in data-intensive work, workflow engineering, and the enhancement of scientific gateways. ECSS projects fall into five categories: Extended Support for Research Teams (ESRT), Novel and Innovative Projects (NIP), Extended Support for Community Codes (ESCC), Extended Support for Science Gateways (ESSGW), and Extended Support for Training, Education and Outreach (ESTEO). Project-based ECSS support is requested by researchers via the XSEDE peer-review allocation process. If reviewers recommend support and if staff resources are available, the ECSS expert and the requesting PI develop a work plan outlining the project tasks. The work plan includes concrete quarterly goals and staffing commitments from both the PI team and ECSS. ECSS managers review work plans and also track progress via quarterly reports. The main metrics of ECSS are the number of projects with workplans per year (targets are ESRT (30), ESCC (10), ESSGW (10)), the average satisfaction with the ECSS support as reported by PIs in post-project interviews (target is 4.5/5), and the impact that those PIs think the ECSS support has had on their project (target is 4/5). The other two metrics, number of new users from non- traditional disciplines of XSEDE resources and services and number of sustained users from non-traditional disciplines of XSEDE resources and services are explained in more detail just before Table 5-3.

NOTE: PY6 is unique and only spans September 2016-April 2017. PY6 Q1 includes September-October 2016. Individual area metrics are discussed below; however, across ECSS as a whole, we are on track to meet our targets. PI ratings for both satisfaction and impact have exceeded the targets in this reporting period. 10 completed projects over the 2 month reporting period puts us on track to exceed 50 completed projects per year. Highlights from individual projects and areas are described below. Digital Instrument for Sound Synthesis and Composition. DISSCO, a Digital Instrument for Sound Synthesis and Composition, offers a unified approach to music composition and sound synthesis, bringing both disciplines together in a seamless process. Presently, DISSCO consists of three modules: LASS, a Library for Additive Sound Synthesis; CMOD, a Composition Module; and LASSIE, a Graphical User Interface (GUI). Sever Tipei, Professor of Music at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign and Manager of the Computer Music Project of the UIUC Experimental Music Studios, worked with ECSS NIP expert Alan Craig (Shodor) to develop a XSEDE startup project with the ultimate goal to run DISSCO in real time or faster (the amount of time for computation not to exceed the time of the performance) for high complexity of the underlying data/composition. The grant was awarded an allocation on SDSC Comet, and an ESRT project was launched with experts Paul Rodriguez and Bob Sinkovits (both SDSC) to analyze and optimize the CMOD module. Work to date has focused on compiler optimization and benchmarking multi-threaded execution, honing in on strategies to improve threaded scalability, as well as performance for a given number of threads. Some initial code changes already indicate the possibility of 2x speedup before the scaling issues are even addressed. Distributed Multi-Threaded CheckPointing. During the last reporting period, an active ESCC project hit a major milestone. In what appears to be the largest example of transparent checkpointing ever, the DMTCP software (Distributed Multi-Threaded CheckPointing) was used to checkpoint an application across 2,048 nodes on TACC's Stampede system. This effort was led by Ph.D. student, Jiajun Cao, in the College of Computer and Information Science at Northeastern University in collaboration with ECSS expert, Jerome Vienne (TACC). The exercise was performed using DMTCP to checkpoint the HPCG (High Performance Conjugate Gradients) program running on 32,768 CPU cores. It was using a total of 38 terabytes of RAM spread across 2,048 nodes. The application was checkpointed in 10 minutes and 53 seconds. A second program, NAMD (Scalable Molecular Dynamics), running on 16,368 cores (1,024 nodes), using a total of 10 terabytes, was checkpointed in two minutes and 38 seconds.

PY6 IPR 1 Page 29 Checkpoint-restart is the ability to save the state of a running program into a file, possibly copy that file to a new computer, and then restart it from the point at which it was checkpointed. This is a widely-used technology for scientists and engineers with long-running programs. The application developer can use DMTCP without any modification to their own application software. The effort represents a collaboration of researchers at Northeastern University, TACC/U. of Texas, The Ohio State University, and the University at Buffalo. Other notable highlights for this quarter include significant involvement from ESTEO in the design and development of new project management tools, Confluence and JIRA. These will be used throughout XSEDE, but perhaps most intensively in ECSS. A special focus includes the implementation of an ECSS workflow so that we can easily see the status of all projects, including those that need assignments, those that are missing workplans and those that are missing reports. Workplans are being implemented in Confluence with ties to JIRA so that staff can more easily track and update tasks. Leadership responsibilities for the International High Performance Computing Summer School have also shifted to ESTEO. 5.1. ECSS Director’s Office (WBS 2.2.1) The ECSS Director’s Office has been established to provide the necessary oversight to ensure the greatest efficiency and effectiveness of the ECSS area. The office consists of two Level 2 Co- Directors (Ralph Roskies, who manages ESRT and NIP activities, and Nancy Wilkins-Diehr who manages ESCC, ESSGW, and ESTEO activities) and two project managers (Karla Gendler and Marques Bland). The Level 2 ECSS Co-Directors, Roskies and Wilkins-Diehr, will continue to advise the XSEDE PI on many issues, especially those where ECSS activities are relevant. They monitor compliance with budgets, and retarget effort if necessary. They periodically run staff face-to-face meetings and respond to concerns, particularly those that emerge from staff climate surveys. In addition, Roskies and Wilkins-Diehr carry out the post-project interviews with all project PIs who have received ECSS support, both to get their assessment of how the project went, and to hear and act on any concerns they may express. Wilkins-Diehr also organizes the monthly symposium series, one of the contributors to staff training, and runs the Campus Champions Fellows program (§4.6). The two project managers aid in the management of the day-to-day activities of ECSS which includes the management of project requests (XRAC and startups), active projects, project assignments and staffing. They will refine the ECSS project lifecycle, further defining processes to aid in the management of over 100 active projects. They will also administer JIRA for the management and tracking of projects, both for the managers and directors of ECSS and for ECSS staff. They will provide ECSS information to the XSEDE Project Management (PM) office and relay information from the PM team to ECSS. They manage and attend bi-weekly ECSS management and less frequent full staff meetings as well as PM meetings. They post notes and action items to the ECSS wiki once meetings have concluded. They also maintain the ECSS wiki and mailing lists. New activities for PY6 include managing the transition to JIRA project management software. 5.2. Extended Support for Research Teams (WBS 2.2.2) Extended Support for Research Teams (ESRT) accelerates scientific discovery by collaborating with researchers, engineers, and scholars in order to optimize their application codes, improve their work and data flows, and increase the effectiveness of their use of XSEDE digital infrastructure.

PY6 IPR 1 Page 30 ESRT projects are initiated as a result of support requests or recommendations obtained during the allocation process. Most projects focus on home-grown codes, as community codes fall under ESCC (§5.4) but are not exclusively restricted to this classification. The primary mandate of ESRT is the support of individual research teams within the context of their research goals. The area metrics for ESRT include the 1) number of completed projects, 2) average impact rating, and 3) average satisfaction with support. The number of completed projects will be monitored throughout the project. A completed project is defined as a project that has progressed through the complete support pipeline, which includes steps such as assignment of a consultant, production of a work plan, execution of work plan and reporting of progress through quarterly reports, and the filing of a final project report. The PIs of these completed projects are contacted by ECSS leadership for an interview where PIs relay their experience with ECSS support and its impact upon their research. These discussions culminate in a numerical ranking (out of 5 possible) that expresses the level of satisfaction with ECSS support and its impact upon their research goals.

PY6 Q1 includes September-October 2016. We are currently on track to meet our metrics. The average satisfaction and impact ratings exceed our goal. However, the number of completed projects is lower than the quarterly goal of ~7-8 projects. This is likely due to the shorter reporting period as well as a number of project extensions. There are currently 32 active projects in ESRT and this is expected to allow us to meet our metric as they are completed. 5.3. Novel and Innovative Projects (WBS 2.2.3) Novel and Innovative Projects (NIP) accelerates research, scholarship, and education provided by new communities that can strongly benefit from the use of XSEDE’s ecosystem of advanced digital services. Working closely with the XSEDE Outreach team, the NIP team identifies a subset of scientists, scholars and educators from new communities, i.e. from disciplines or demographics that have not yet made significant use of advanced computing infrastructure, who are now

PY6 IPR 1 Page 31 committed to projects that appear to require XSEDE services and are in a good position to use them efficiently. NIP staff then provides personal mentoring to these projects, helping them to obtain XSEDE allocations and use them successfully. XSEDE projects generated by, and mentored by, the personal efforts of the NIP experts should stimulate additional practitioners in their field to become interested in XSEDE. Strategies used will include building and promotion of science gateways serving communities of end-users and the enhancement of the Domain Champions program by which successful practitioners spread the word about the benefits of XSEDE to their colleagues. A set of 60 fields of science (FOS) have been identified in the XD Central Database, each of whose usage over the past 10 years is below 0.5% of the total normalized usage. The area metric “number of new users from non-traditional disciplines of XSEDE resources and services” (an XSEDE KPI) will report the total number of users on the projects newly activated from these FOS. The area metric “number of sustained users from non-traditional disciplines of XSEDE resources and services” (an XSEDE KPI) will report the total number of users on the projects from these FOS that have used at least 10% of their allocated usage. The area metric “number of new XSEDE projects from target communities generated by NIP” will report the number of projects from the targeted FOS that will be generated by the personal efforts of NIP staff members. The area metric “number of successful XSEDE projects from target communities mentored by NIP” will report the number of projects from the targeted FOS, personally mentored by NIP staff members that have used at least 10% of their allocated usage.

PY6 IPR 1 Page 32 NIP is on track to significantly exceed the targets we tentatively set when we redefined its metrics for XSEDE2. The generation and success (in terms of usage) of projects assisted by NIP staff is boosted by the availability of production SPs specifically designed to enable non- traditional applications (Bridges, Comet, Jetstream, Wrangler, Xstream). If these trends hold up over the course of PY6, we will increase the targets for PY7 accordingly. 5.4. Extended Support for Community Codes (WBS 2.2.4) Extended Collaborative Support for Community Codes (ESCC) extends the use of XSEDE resources by collaborating with researchers and community code developers to deploy, harden, and optimize software systems necessary for research communities to create new knowledge. ESCC supports users via requested projects and initiated projects. ESCC projects may be created in two different ways. Most ESCC projects are initiated as a result of requests for assistance during the allocation process. These projects are similar in nature to ESRT projects but involve community codes rather than codes developed for and by individual research groups. ESCC projects may also be initiated by staff to support a community’s needs. ESCC has three key metrics: number of completed projects, impact rating, and satisfaction rating. These metrics are collected on a quarterly basis although the targets are annual. The number of completed projects refers to the number of projects that were assigned, progressed to the workplan phase, and completed with a final report. The impact rating is an estimate of the impact the ESCC project had on a PI’s research based on a number the PI assigns to it. The satisfaction rating measures the PI’s satisfaction with the support provided by ECSS.

PY6 Q1 includes September-October 2016. ESCC is on track to meet the target of 10 completed projects per year with an impact rating that meets the target. However, the average satisfaction number is slightly below target. With the completion of only three projects for this period, it is too early to determine if this will be an issue for the coming project year.

PY6 IPR 1 Page 33 5.5. Extended Support for Science Gateways (WBS 2.2.5) Extended Support for Science Gateways (ESSGW) broadens science impact and accelerates scientific discovery by collaborating in the development and enhancement of science-centric gateway interfaces and by fostering a science gateway community ecosystem. ESSGW projects primarily begin through user requests from the XSEDE allocation process. Similar to ESRT and ESCC, ESSGW projects progress through three activities. First, the project is assigned to an ECSS expert. Second, the project is quantified with the formation of a work plan through collaboration with the research group. Third, when the project is completed, the ESSGW expert produces a final report with input from the research group. A successful project is the completion of all three phases. Each state of the progression is measured to provide an assessment of progress. Submission of work plans within 45 days of initial contact, 90% of projects with work plans completed, and 85% of completed projects with final reports within three months are additional criteria for success. Area metrics are direct measurements of ESSGW’s operations and effectiveness. The target of ten completed ESSGW projects per year measures ESSGW’s operations and indicates that the area is both bringing in new projects, and concluding previous consultations. The effectiveness of the consultations is measured by the next two metrics, impact rating and satisfaction of the support recipients. These two metrics are measured through interviews. The fourth metric measures the unique number of gateway users across all gateways.

PY6 IPR 1 Page 34 ESSGW is making solid progress on its area metrics and we expect to meet our yearly targets. Area focuses for next quarter will be to recruit new science gateway clients to replace expiring projects, to revise and update XSEDE’s website material on science gateways, and to work with ESTEO on new science gateway outreach and training materials. 5.6. Extended Support for Education, Outreach, & Training (WBS 2.2.6) Extended Collaborative Support for Training, Education & Outreach (ESTEO) prepares the current and next generation of researchers, engineers, and scholars in the use of advanced digital technologies by providing the technical support for Training, Education and Outreach planned activities. Typical events include train-the-trainers events, on-site classes requested by Campus Champions, regional workshops, conferences, and summer schools (including the International HPC Summer School). Staff also create and review online documentation and training modules. This on-demand training is increasingly popular with the user community when both time and travel budgets are limited. A few of the overall activities performed by ESTEO are represented in the Area Metrics table, namely, metrics surrounding support of the campus champions fellows program, a metric to gauge the number of live training events staffed, and metrics designed to measure breadth of attendees participating in both staff training and ECSS symposium activities. The full breadth of ESTEO activities is captured in the “ongoing activities” section below, which are measured and reported quarterly in the metrics appendix.

XSEDE Community Infrastructure (WBS 2.3) The mission of XSEDE Community Infrastructure (XCI) is to facilitate interaction, sharing, and compatibility of all relevant software and related services across the national CI community, building on, and improving upon, the foundational efforts of XSEDE. XCI envisions enabling users by targeting services allocated by XSEDE (including OSG resources), campus-based CI facilities, commercial cloud providers, CI software services such as science gateways and Globus Online, and even the individual researcher who wants to interact effectively with the national CI via her or his own laptop. Through XCI, XSEDE will serve an aligning function within the nation, not by rigorously defining a particular architecture, but rather by assembling a technical infrastructure that facilitates interaction and interoperability across the national CI community. The suite of interoperable and compatible software tools that XSEDE will make available to the community will be based on those already in use but will add additional services that address emerging needs including data and computational services. There are four area metrics for XCI: Average satisfaction rating of XCI services; number of new capabilities made available for production deployment; number of capabilities delivered vs. those planned; and total number of systems that use one or more CRI provided toolkits. For the average satisfaction rating of XCI services, the L2 Director and Deputy Director will focus their attention on current and new community stakeholders who can benefit from XCI services. This will be a critical method for demonstrating return on investment (ROI) for XCI. They will work with the XSEDE Evaluation team to survey all community stakeholders on the value of XCI services. For the number of new capabilities made available for production deployment, XCI will accept Use Cases from CEE, ECSS and Capability and Resource Integration (CRI) and will quickly provide capability development plans (CDP) that will be prioritized and executed based on feedback from the User Requirement Evaluation and Prioritization (UREP) and the SMT. Measuring the number of capabilities delivered versus those planned is essentially an efficiency ratio. With proper vetting and prioritization by the UREP and Senior Management Team (SMT), XCI is committed to the efficient and effective delivery of new capabilities. The total number of systems that use one or more CRI provided toolkits is a measure of effectiveness in broadening the community and participation in national cyberinfrastructure. If CRI is successful, participation in national cyberinfrastructure means sharing resources beyond institutional boundaries, not just consuming them.

PY6 Q1 includes September-October 2016. We met or exceeded the target values for 2 of our 4 area metrics. We did not meet our target values for “Number of new capabilities made available for production deployment” or “Number of capabilities delivered/Number planned.” In both cases, this is because we have not fully delivered any XSEDE2 Use Cases because we have been finishing up XSEDE1 deliverables. XCI delivered the new Community Software Repository (XCSR) to enable the broader XSEDE community to share and discover software information, and to facilitate integration of new software into the XSEDE ecosystem. XCI will continue to expand on the initial XCSR features thru the remainder of PY6. We also delivered significant enhancements to three XSEDE software- based capabilities: interactive shell-based login using GSI OpenSSH client/server software, authenticating to XSEDE using Federated InCommon campus credentials using CI Logon, and improved job start prediction services using Karnak. CRI has made significant strides in integrating the Service Provider (SP) coordination services with former Campus Bridging activities. Victor Hazlewood continues to work closely with the SPs, especially with unallocated SPs. As of this IPR, significant numbers of unallocated SPs have provided information into the Resource Description Repository (RDR) and are preparing to submit additional information to the XSEDE information services framework. CRI continues its activities to facilitate the easy distribution of jobs between XSEDE and campus resources. The CRI field engineer worked closely with XSEDE Science Gateways to create a persistent cluster within the Jetstream resource for running jobs submitted via the SEAGrid gateway. In addition, cooperative work to create a campus queue that can submit jobs to OSG and to Torque/PBS-scheduled resources has been completed and the campus queue is in production, running as many as 10,090 concurrent jobs via the campus queue service. Outreach work continues to recruit new adopters of campus toolkits and cluster tools. The CRI team conducted a webinar in October in order to familiarize interested users with the toolkits available. Further calls were conducted with California State University Channel Islands, University of Missouri Kansas City, and Slippery Rock University to discuss deployments of CRI campus toolkits. 6.1. XCI Director’s Office (WBS 2.3.1) The XCI Director’s Office has been established to provide the necessary oversight to ensure the greatest efficiency and effectiveness of the XCI area. This oversight includes providing direction to the L3 management team, coordination of, and participation in, XCI planning activities and reports through the area’s Project Manager. The Director’s Office also attends and supports the preparation of project level reviews and activities.

PY6 IPR 1 Page 38 XCI will work with CEE, ECSS, and UREP groups to understand new Use Case requests and their priorities to ensure timely delivery of necessary capabilities and services. Furthermore, XCI will work with these same groups to help quantify the importance and usage of new services and capabilities by the NSF community in determining return on investment. The XCI Director’s Office will continue to manage and set direction for XCI activities and responsibilities. They will contribute to, and attend, bi-weekly SMT calls, contribute to the project level plan, schedule, and budget, contribute to XSEDE quarterly, annual, and other reports as required by the NSF, and attend XSEDE quarterly and annual meetings. The XCI Director’s office will also initiate, evaluate, and act on annual stakeholder satisfaction surveys. New activities include a renewed focus on identifying new community stakeholders who can benefit from XCI services, understanding their requirements, and measuring their satisfaction qualitatively and, wherever possible, quantitatively. 6.2. Requirements Analysis & Capability Delivery (WBS 2.3.2) The Requirements Analysis & Capability Delivery (RACD) team facilitates the integration, maintenance, and support of cyberinfrastructure capabilities addressing user technical requirements. The process begins by preparing Capability Delivery Plans (CDPs) that describe the technical gaps in XSEDE’s prioritized Use Cases. To fill the gaps, RACD evaluates and/or tests existing software solutions, engages with software providers and facilitates software and service integration. To ensure software and service adoption and ROI, RACD will involve users, Service Providers and operators in an integration process that uses engineering best practices and instrument components to measure usage. Once components are integrated, RACD will facilitate software maintenance and enhancements in response to evolving user needs and an evolving infrastructure environment. RACD helps create an open and evolving e-infrastructure by integrating components that support XSEDE Use Cases. The first key activity in that process involves preparing Capability Delivery Plans (CDPs) that detail how RACD plans to address software capability gaps in XSEDE prioritized Use Cases. Some capability gaps may require engaging with current or new software partners and this number of engagements is to be tracked. Based on lessons learned in the previous years of the project, the engineering process further improves both user and service provider engagement during the capability integration process and thus the satisfaction of this engagement is tracked.

Of the user facing, only one was available to users long enough to collect user ratings. We will report on the others in future progress reports. 2 RACD delivered 5 components this period, three operated by us/RACD and two by XSEDE and SP Operations. Of those two delivered to XSEDE and SP Operations, only one was available long enough to collect an operator rating. 3 RACD has four active assistance engagements, one that is new and too early to rate and three that are ongoing. One engagement gave us a rating while the other two did not have notable interactions with us during this reporting period. We met or exceeded the target for all of our metrics. 6.3. XSEDE Capability & Resource Integration (WBS 2.3.3) The mission of the Capability & Resource Integration (CRI) team is to work with SPs, CI providers and campuses to maximize the aggregate utility of national cyberinfrastructure. CRI will coordinate interactions between SP’s and XSEDE in the SP Forum, engage with national CI providers, gather requirements for tools and training that assist users of XSEDE and other CI, identify and disseminate benefits and costs of interoperating with XSEDE, and create toolkits that fit and improve common usage modalities. CRI’s activities are reflected in the uptake of CRI-integrated toolkits, such as the XSEDE Campus Bridging Cluster toolkit and XSEDE National Integration Toolkit, but also Globus Transfer clients and other toolkits as developed. The Area Metrics reflect users of CRI toolkits as well as integration of toolkits on Level 1 SP resources and the aggregate CI (in Teraflops) taking advantage of CRI tools.

PY6 IPR 1 Page 40 The number of systems using one or more CRI provided toolkits includes systems using the Globus Transfer software, the XSEDE National Integration Toolkit (XNIT), and XSEDE Campus Bridging Cluster (XCBC), as well as any new toolkits developed by CRI. The number of Level 1 total systems that incorporate tools reflects the level of adoption of CRI toolkits within the SP community. Thanks to incorporating SP Forum coordination, CRI hopes to get SP input on requirements for potential new toolkits, which paves the way towards a broader CI utility set. The number of repository subscribers indicates the number of campus sites which receive regular updates from the XSEDE Community Software Repository, indicating regular and prolonged use of the XNIT. Aggregate Teraflops of cluster systems reflects the uptake of both the XNIT and XCBC software and gives some measure of the overall capability provided by these toolkits. Metrics for partnership interactions reflect sustained work on the part of CRI with other CI providers, campuses, and SP representatives to be responsive to a broad set of needs.

The metric representing the aggregate number of TeraFLOPS

PY6 IPR 1 Page 41 counted is a project duration metric (we hope to reach 1000 by the end of the project); we will keep a running tally of this throughout the project. The metric representing the number of repository subscribers to CRI cluster and laptop toolkits is below target, but we are working to improve this by establishing some software toolkits that will allow for automated reporting of clusters, as well as having more direct contact with campus system maintainers through a new mailing list and area on the XSEDE User Portal. For partnership interactions, we expect to have 3 meetings with target audiences each quarter, bringing us to the target of 12 for the year with no problems.

PY6 IPR 1 Page 42 7. XSEDE Operations (WBS 2.4) The mission of XSEDE Operations is to install, connect, maintain, secure, and evolve an integrated cyberinfrastructure that incorporates a wide range of digital capabilities to support national scientific, engineering, and scholarly research efforts. In addition to the Operations Director’s Office (§7.1), Operations staff is subdivided into four teams based on the work breakdown structure: Cybersecurity (§7.2), Data Transfer Services (§7.3), XSEDE Operations Center (XOC) (§7.4), and Systems Operational Support (§7.5). The Operations management team meets weekly and individual Operations groups meet approximately bi-weekly with all meeting minutes posted to the XSEDE wiki. XSEDE Operations has three Area Metrics: (1) average composite availability (as a geometric mean) of both critical central services and the XSEDE Resource Allocation Service (XRAS) (2) hours of downtime of critical central services or multiple Service Providers resulting from a security incident with direct user impact, and (3) mean time to resolution (MTTR) of external user tickets. Maintaining and evolving an integrated cyberinfrastructure requires the availability, reliability, and security of digital resources. To that end, XSEDE Operations is charged with monitoring a number of hardware and software services. Along with monitoring and maintaining resources, the XOC provides XSEDE with effective and efficient user support by responding to service requests from end users and staff. All user (non- staff) service requests handled by the XOC and WBS ticket queues comprise this metric.

PY6 Q1 includes September-October 2016.

PY6 IPR 1 Page 43 Average composite availability of core services was nearly 100%. There was no downtime of services resulting from security incidents. The MTTR for the XOC and WBS tickets was 24 hours, which is right at the target. In response to user feedback, we have begun collecting SSH key fingerprints for all relevant XSEDE allocated resources and publishing them on the main resource page of the XSEDE website. This helps users know that there is not a man-in-the-middle attack when either server keys change or when they log in for the first time. In response to staff feedback, we transitioned from a hardware token-only two factor authentication system, to a mix of hardware and software token two factor system. This increases resource administrator flexibility while maintaining a high level of security. We began conversations with Stanford network engineers to initiate the process of integrating Stanford’s campus into our XSEDEnet networking infrastructure. We also introduced a new area metric, which gauges user satisfaction with external user tickets closed by the XSEDE Operations Center (XOC). This metric directly reflects the quality of user experience with problem resolution and is a valuable feedback mechanism for Operations, especially the XOC staff. It is reported in the XOC section below. 7.1. Operations Director’s Office (WBS 2.4.1) The Operations Director’s Office has been established to provide the necessary oversight to ensure the greatest efficiency and effectiveness of the Operations area. This oversight includes providing direction to the L3 management team, coordination of, and participation in, Operations planning activities and reports through the area’s Project Manager. The Director’s Office also attends and supports the preparation of project level reviews and activities. The Operations Director’s Office will continue to manage and set direction for Operations activities and responsibilities. They will contribute to, and attend, bi-weekly senior management team calls, contribute to the project level plan, schedule, and budget, contribute to XSEDE quarterly, annual, and other reports as required by the NSF and attend XSEDE quarterly & annual meetings. The Director’s Office will also provide analysis of network traffic and user help ticket data to improve capabilities, service, and/or metrics. 7.2. Cybersecurity (WBS 2.4.2) The Cybersecurity Security (Ops-Sec) group protects the confidentiality, integrity and availability of XSEDE resources and services. The Area Metric for the Cybersecurity group is the percentage of time that critical XSEDE resources are unavailable due to a security incident. Downtime resulting from security incidents has a direct impact on the availability of critical XSEDE resources to users and is the key evaluative measurement of the Cybersecurity group’s efforts. Users expect XSEDE resources to be reliable and secure, thus the security team’s goal is to minimize any interruption of services related to a security event.

Data Transfer Services (WBS 2.4.3) The Data Transfer Services (DTS) group facilitates data movement and management for the community by maintaining and continuously evolving XSEDE data services and resources. The Area Metric for the DTS group is the performance (Gbps) of intra-XSEDE GridFTP transfers > 1GB. The metric for data transfer performance on large files reflects the ability to consistently provide high performance data movement facilities.

PY6 Q1 includes September-October 2016. We slightly surpassed the metric target this reporting period. 7.4. XSEDE Operations Center (WBS 2.4.4) The XSEDE Operations Center (XOC) staff serve as user advocates, providing timely and accurate assistance to the XSEDE community, while simultaneously monitoring and troubleshooting user- facing systems and services. The XOC has two Area Metrics. The mean time to ticket resolution (MTTR) for XSEDE user service requests in the XOC queue demonstrates how responsive and efficient the XOC is when handling and resolving tickets. This metric does not apply to WBS ticket queues, Service Provider ticket queues or to internal tickets issued to XSEDE staff or other XSEDE funded individuals. The user satisfaction metric directly gauges users opinions of their experience with the XOC.

PY6 Q1 includes September-October 2016. Targets for both metrics were met and actually exceeded. We will continue tracking these and re-evaluate for PY7. 7.5. System Operations Support (WBS 2.4.5) Systems Operational Support (SysOps) provides enterprise level support and system administration for all XSEDE central services. The Area Metric for the SysOps group is the percentage of time that enterprise XSEDE services (a geometric mean) are available. The availability metric shows the amount of time that the critical enterprise services (Tier 1) are available for use. Services are grouped into criticality tiers based on their significance and dependence that other services have on them. Tier 1 systems are systems such as Kerberos, XDCDB (XSEDE Central Database), and DNS (Domain Name Service). Tier 2 are business-day supported services such as JIRA. Tier 3 are development supported systems such as the RT test instance. When calculated as a geometric mean, the availability metric will show the cumulative impact of the enterprise services to the stakeholders.

8. Resource Allocation Service (WBS 2.5) The Resource Allocation Service (RAS) is building on XSEDE’s current allocation processes and evolving to meet the challenges presented by new types of resources to be allocated via XSEDE, new computing and data modalities to support increasingly diverse research needs, and large- scale demands from the user community for limited XSEDE-allocated resources. RAS is pursuing these objectives through three activities: managing the XSEDE allocations process in coordination with the XD Service Providers, enhancing and maintaining the RAS infrastructure and services, and anticipating changing community needs. The area metrics for RAS focus on support for two of XSEDE’s key sub-goals: providing excellent user support and providing reliable, efficient and secure infrastructure. An updated quarterly survey of users who have interacted during the quarter with the allocations request system and the allocations process more generally is being used to determine the user satisfaction ratings metrics. The survey has been developed with, and is coordinated through, the XSEDE Evaluation Team. The availability of XDCDB and XRAS will be measured by tracking the planned and unplanned outages for the XDCDB server on which XRAS and many other XSEDE services rely.

PY6 Q1 includes September-October 2016. The "Average user satisfaction rating with allocations and other support services" is a composite metric comprised of user satisfaction ratings of the allocations process (Table 8-2) and of XRAS (Table 8-3). This metric was just below our quarterly target. User satisfaction survey results of the XRAS system were just shy of being within our target range. While the users are generally quite satisfied with the overall use of XRAS, the allocations satisfaction survey results indicate a need for improvements to the online documentation for the use of XRAS. This documentation (and allocations documentation more generally) will be a focus for RAS in the upcoming reporting period. User satisfaction survey results with the allocations process were also just short of the target. This value is calculated from the quarterly allocations satisfaction survey. Satisfaction with the process is the average across a 10-part question that covers aspects of the allocations process, from the policies in general, documentation, user effort, and outcomes. The first such survey indicated that time spent preparing supporting documents (3.82) and usefulness of reviewer comments (3.57) are the current areas with lowest user satisfaction; six of the 10 components had satisfaction ratings above 4.0. RAS will present the results to XRAC members and XSEDE’s ECSS reviewers to start bringing up the satisfaction with reviewer

PY6 IPR 1 Page 47 comments. Recommendations from the allocation policy review process are expected to help address the document preparation issue, and we will prioritize relevant recommendations for earliest implementation. The target for the availability of XRAS was exceeded. The entire RAS group participated in a two-day onsite planning meeting hosted at NCAR. This meeting culminated in a five-year plan for the area, an introduction to Agile methods, and a refinement of the process by which features and improvements are approved for implementation in the Allocations, Accounting & Account Management (A3M) infrastructure. The process includes the use of JIRA for issue management using the SCRUM framework. Two sprints have been conducted, leading to improved communication among the members of the group, with XSEDE management and stakeholders. The primary features added during this period include improved XDCDB security, XRAC meeting booklet generation, as well as research into a Continuous Integration environment. 8.1. RAS Director’s Office (WBS 2.5.1) The RAS Director’s Office has been established to provide the necessary oversight to ensure the greatest efficiency and effectiveness of the RAS area. This oversight includes providing direction to the L3 management team, coordination of, and participation in, RAS planning activities and reports through the area’s Project Manager. The Director’s Office also attends and supports the preparation of project level reviews and activities. The RAS Director’s Office will continue to manage and set direction for RAS activities and responsibilities. They will contribute to and attend bi-weekly senior management team calls, contribute to the project level plan, schedule, and budget, contribute to XSEDE quarterly, annual, and other reports as required by the NSF and attend XSEDE quarterly and annual meetings. 8.2. XSEDE Allocations Process & Policies (WBS 2.5.2) Allocations enable the national open science community to easily gain access to XSEDE’s advanced digital resources, allowing them to achieve their research and education goals. In support of the goal “Sustain – Provide excellent user support,” Allocations has two area metrics: user satisfaction with the allocations process and the average time to process Startup requests. Allocations also supports the goal “Provide reliable, efficient, and secure infrastructure” by measuring the percentage of XRAC-recommended service unit (SUs) allocated, which is a third Area Metric for this group. This third metric provides insight for RAS, the XSEDE program, NSF, and Service Providers into the success of the XSEDE ecosystem at meeting users’ scientific objectives.

PY6 Q1 includes September-October 2016. User satisfaction with the allocations process was just below target. This value is calculated from the quarterly allocations satisfaction survey. Satisfaction with the process is the average across a 10-part questionnaire that covers various aspects of the allocations process, from the policies in general, documentation, user effort, and outcomes. The first such survey indicated that time spent preparing supporting documents (3.82) and usefulness of reviewer comments (3.57) are the current areas with lowest user satisfaction; six of the 10 components had satisfaction ratings above 4.0. RAS will present the results to XRAC members and XSEDE’s ECSS reviewers to start bringing up the satisfaction with reviewer comments. Recommendations from the allocation policy review process are expected to help address the document preparation issue, and we will prioritize relevant recommendations for earliest implementation. The target for average time to process startup requests was met. The percentage of XRAC-recommended SUs allocated was below target. Though data collected by RAS provides insight to XSEDE, NSF, and other stakeholders, this metric underscores the challenges faced by the ecosystem as a whole and is not wholly within the ability of RAS to control. However, it does reflect the challenge faced by RAS in maintaining satisfaction with the allocations process overall. RAS is continuing to look for additional metrics to summarize aspects of RAS’s conduct of the allocations process. 8.3. Allocations, Accounting, & Account Management CI (WBS 2.5.3) The Allocations, Accounting & Account Management CI (A3M) group maintains and improves the interfaces, databases and data transfer mechanisms for XSEDE-wide resource allocations, accounting of resource usage, and user account management. The Area Metrics for A3M are satisfaction results from surveys on the use of the XSEDE Resource Allocation Service (XRAS)— the primary user-facing service for RAS—the aggregated availability of XDCDB and XRAS systems, and the percentage of approved feature change requests implemented. The activities in A3M support the XSEDE sub-goals of providing a reliable and secure infrastructure, and creating an open and evolving e-infrastructure.

This will be a focus for the A3M group in the upcoming reporting period. The targets for the availability of the XRAS systems and percentage of approved feature change requests implemented were met.

PY6 IPR 1 Page 50 9. Program Office (WBS 2.6) The purpose of the Program Office is to ensure the critical project level functions are in place and operating effectively and efficiently. The oversight, provided via the Project Office, is necessary to provide consistent guidance and leadership to the L3 managers across the project. A common and consistent approach to managing projects and risks is provided by the Project Management, Reporting and Risk Management (PM&R) team, while Business Operations manages all financial and sub-awards. The crucial aspect of communications to all stakeholders is the focus of the External Relations team. Finally, Strategic Planning, Policy and Evaluation (SP&E) focuses attention in precisely those areas to ensure the best possible structure continues to exist within XSEDE to allow the support of all significant project activities and enable efficient and effective performance of all project responsibilities. As with other areas of the project, the Program Office has established Area Metrics to track performance against attaining the project’s strategic goals. The Area Metrics for “Social Media,” and “Media Hits” have been separated as a way to show the impact of each primary activity with one number best representing the performance each quarter and year. “Social Media” refers to “impressions,” which is more comprehensive than just “followers” or “likes,” but includes the amount of people who may see content based on people sharing XSEDE’s content to their friends and followers on both Facebook and Twitter. “Media Hits” refers to the number of stories that were shared or written by external print or digital publications. To deliver the most advanced and useful digital services for researchers, XSEDE must constantly evolve. This makes continuous evaluation and improvement of processes and policies critical to the effectiveness of XSEDE as an organization; therefore, as tracked by the PM&R team, the project’s KPI for sustaining an effective virtual organization is the number of improvements made. Potential improvements consist of recommendations based on the staff climate survey, efforts by area managers to increase efficiency or quality, adaptations in response to an evolving project, or improvements to overall execution through implementation of widely validated methodologies. Measuring innovation for an organization like XSEDE (or for organizations in general) is difficult and represents an area of open research. A partial measure is the number of staff publications produced since this shows that XSEDE staff is involved in novel activities that achieve peer- reviewed publication. Additionally, after much thought and discussion both internally and with external stakeholders and advisors, XSEDE has identified two additional indicators that strongly correlate to innovation: 1) the ratio of proactive organizational improvements to those that were reactive and 2) the number of improvements that are innovative or lead to innovations. The first indicator is a measurement of organizational maturity and agility; the second measures innovative actions directly. This will continue to be an open conversation within the organization and with XSEDE’s stakeholders and advisors as XSEDE assess these measurements and how to best to qualify innovation.

PY6 Q1 includes September-October 2016. 1 L2 Directors are currently responding to climate study recommendations; data will be available in IPR2. The first two months of the new XSEDE award has been focused on the initial setup activities, and the creation of plans for internal operations and raising awareness of the XSEDE project. Initial setup activities are across the entire Program Office. Business Operations has made significant progress with the processing of the initial sub-awards for all partner institutions. All sub-awards are expected to be in place by the end of 2016. The creation and integration of improved financial management tools are progressing, with full integration of the tools expected by the end of 2016. Business operational lessons learned from PY5 have been evaluated and improvements implemented to increase the communication and transparency of the XSEDE Business Operations activities to the sub-award PIs and associated business offices. The PM&R team has implemented a new reporting process that is expected to increase content owner collaboration while decreasing the overall overhead of the reporting process. One major project that has been implemented and nearing completion is the transition to the new, publicly- viewable XSEDE wiki. The wiki has been established, largely populated, and is expected is to be complete in the initial population of the individual level 2 and level 3 wiki pages by the end of 2016. The SP&E team has been focused on the creation of the XSEDE Performance Management Plan. The committed delivery of the completed plan is February, 2017. External Relations has focused on the objective of increasing the awareness of the XSEDE project within the research and computational science communities. Notable activities towards this

PY6 IPR 1 Page 52 objective include preparation for the 2016 Supercomputing Conference (SC16) and the creation of multimedia content that includes information about XSEDE Level 1 Service Providers as well as interviews with researchers that have active XSEDE allocations. The finalized multimedia set will be used at SC16, as well as throughout XSEDE communications via the XSEDE website and newsletters. 9.1. Project Office (WBS 2.6.1) The Project Office has been established to provide the necessary oversight to ensure the greatest efficiency and effectiveness of the Program Office area and to establish responsibility for assuring advisory activities of the project occur. This oversight includes providing direction to the L3 management team and coordination of and participation in Program Office planning activities and reports through the area’s Project Manager. The Project Office also attends and supports the preparation of project level reviews and activities. Importantly, the Project Office is also responsible for assuring that the XSEDE Advisory Board, the User Advisory Committee, and the SP Forum are functioning. The Project Office is also responsible for coordination of project- level meetings such at the bi-weekly Senior Management Team (SMT) teleconference calls and the project quarterly meetings. With the transition to a new organizational structure for PY6, the makeup of the Senior Management Team (SMT) has changed. The XSEDE SMT is the highest-level management body in the organization. It is chaired by the Program Director (PI Towns), and includes the WBS Level 2 directors of Community Engagement & Enhancement (co-PI Gaither), the Extended Collaborative Support Service (Co-PI Wilkins-Diehr and Co-PI Roskies), XSEDE Community Infrastructure (Lifka), XSEDE Operations (Peterson), the Resource Allocations Service (Hart) and the Program Office (Payne). In order to be responsive to both the user community and the set of collaborating SPs, the chairs of the User Advisory Committee (currently Emre Brookes, University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio) and the XD Service Providers Forum (currently Dan Stanzione, University of Texas at Austin) are members of the SMT. These ten individuals constitute the voting members of the SMT. The Senior Project Manager (Gendler) is an ex officio member of the SMT. The cognizant NSF Program Officer (Eigenmann) is also an ex officio member. The XSEDE Senior Management team meets on a bi-weekly basis to assess project status and plans, and to address issues. 9.2. External Relations (WBS 2.6.2) External Relations’ (ER) mission is to communicate the value and importance of XSEDE to all stakeholders (including the internal audience) through creative and strategic communications. The ER team will measure its ability to effectively communicate with internal and external stakeholders by the number of social media impressions gained through user engagement, the responsiveness of email communications, and by the frequency and quality of content developed by the ER team, or successfully placed pitches to targeted media outlets. Social media impressions are an indicator of the quality of information and content XSEDE is generating and sharing with current communities, advanced computing enthusiasts, XSEDE users, and new communities. Effective use of social media tools and the generation of good content allows XSEDE to raise awareness of the value of advanced digital services. The number of science stories and announcements produced by media outlets are Area Metrics because they are an indicator of XSEDE’s ability to identify science success stories and to effectively work with targeted media in order to reach key audiences.

PY6 IPR 1 Page 53 Monthly open and click-through rates of the external XSEDE newsletter, Impact, are important Area Metrics because they indicate engagement levels of users and supporters of the project.

PY6 Q1 includes September-October 2016. XSEDE External Relations is on pace for our yearly goals in social media impressions, science success stories and announcements, and the open rates in our newsletters. We will increase activities to produce media “hits” in the new quarter due to new science content that is in development and coverage surrounding XSEDE’s activities at SC16. We anticipate new efforts to implement multimedia internal and external newsletters will help improve reader engagement and as a result produce higher click-thru rates. Our 10.9 percent click-thru rate for this quarter is still relatively high compared to industry standards (often as low as 3-4 percent). 9.3. Project Management, Reporting, & Risk Management (WBS 2.6.3) Project Management, Reporting & Risk Management (PM&R) enables an effective virtual organization through application of project management principles, provides visibility to project progress, successes, and challenges, brings new ideas and management practices into the project and disseminates lessons learned in XSEDE to other virtual organizations. Communication is critical to success in this highly distributed virtual organization. The coordination provided by PM&R ensures timely delivery of status reports to NSF, full and timely consideration of project change requests (PCRs), and awareness and evaluation of risks.

IPRs are submitted in the quarter following the reporting period and thus, this variance will be reported in the subsequent quarter. We have met our targets for this quarter. 9.4. Business Operations (WBS 2.6.4) The Business Operations group, working closely with staff at the University of Illinois’ Grants and Contracts Office (GCO) and National Center for Supercomputing Applications’ (NCSA) Business Office, will handle budgetary issues, manage sub-awards and assure timely processing of sub-award amendments and invoices. Business Operations will measure its ability to manage the business relationships with all sub- award institutions through the processing cycle-time of sub-award amendments and invoices. Efficient processing of sub-award amendments and invoices is required to avoid possible delays in the overall execution of the project.

PY6 Q1 includes September-October 2016. 1 Sub-award institutions do not have XSEDE2 contracts in place yet, so no amendments or invoices can be charged against the grant yet. The metrics regarding processing time for sub-award amendments and invoices will become relevant in the second quarter. The high number of Business Operations decisions and project improvements reflect the implementation of XSEDE1 lessons learned and feedback from the XSEDE sub-award partners. The actuals for each of the first three quarter are expected to exceed the target due to the increased efforts to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of the Business Operations responsibilities. Targets will be re-evaluated for PY7 as these are new metrics in use in XSEDE. 9.5. Strategic Planning, Policy & Evaluation (WBS 2.6.5) XSEDE dedicates effort to project-wide strategic planning, policy development, evaluation and assessment, and organizational improvement in support of sustaining an effective and productive virtual organization. XSEDE has engaged an independent Evaluation Team designed to provide XSEDE with information to guide program improvement and assess the impact of XSEDE services. Evaluations are based on five primary data sources: (1) an Annual User Survey that will be part of the XSEDE annual report and program plan; (2) an Enhanced Longitudinal Study encompassing additional target groups (e.g., faculty, institutions, disciplines, etc.) and additional measures (e.g., publications, citations, research funding, promotion and tenure, etc.); (3) an Annual XSEDE Staff Climate Study; (4) XSEDE KPIs, Area Metrics, and Organizational Improvement efforts, including ensuring that procedures are in place to assess these data; and (5) Specialized Studies as contracted by Level 2 directors and the Program Office. The first Area metric was designed to address the extent to which evaluation recommendations are considered by project leadership. The metric intentionally does not measure “implementation” of recommendations due to the many factors that may impede implementation (e.g. timelines, funding, capacity, etc.). The evaluation team intends to track this metric with new tools currently being implemented in XSEDE, namely JIRA and Confluence. The team intends to upload evaluation reports to Confluence and copy recommendations to JIRA for tracking. Since this L3 area is also responsible for strategic planning and policy, the second Area Metric measures how well-prepared XSEDE staff feel to perform their jobs. This metric is obtained by staff self-report via the Annual XSEDE Staff Climate Study conducted by the external evaluation team. Staff responses to a set of Likert scale items measured on a scale of 1 (Strongly Disagree) to 5 (Strongly Agree) and relating to staff preparation are combined to determine a mean index score.

PY6 IPR 1 Page 56 To deliver the most advanced and useful digital services for researchers, XSEDE must constantly evolve. This makes continuous evaluation and improvement of processes and policies critical to the effectiveness of XSEDE as an organization; therefore, the project’s KPI for sustaining an effective virtual organization is the number of improvements made. Potential improvements consist of recommendations based on the staff climate survey, efforts by area managers to increase efficiency or quality, adaptations in response to an evolving project or improvements to overall execution through implementation of widely validated methodologies. Process improvements are tracked via a self-reporting method. All areas of the project are asked to submit the process improvements they have made to their areas on a quarterly basis. From this list, the improvements are then classified as being either strategic or innovative and proactive or reactive.

We are well on our way toward meeting the SP&E metrics. In 2015 the average rating of staff regarding how well-prepared they feel to perform their jobs was 3.66, this has improved to 3.70 in 2016. The high ratio of proactive to reactive improvements is attributed to the extra effort of making improvements as part of the transition from XSEDE1 to XSEDE2.

10.2. Metrics 10.2.1. SP Resource and Service Usage Metrics To demonstrate its success and help focus management attention on areas in need of improvement, XSEDE monitors a wide range of metrics in support of different aspects of “success” for the program. The metrics presented in this section provides a view into XSEDE’s user community, including XSEDE’s success at expanding that community, the projects and allocations through which XSEDE manages access to resources, and the subsequent use of the resources by the community. Table 10-1 summarizes a few key measures of the user community, the projects and allocations, and resource utilization. Expanded information and five-year historical trends are shown in three corresponding subsections. In Q3 2016, the XSEDE user community continued to climb on many measures. The number of open user accounts neared 9,500; the number of gateway users remained above 4,000; more than 1,700 new user accounts were added to SP resources; and more than 420 institutions were represented among the users running jobs. The number of gateway users once again exceeded traditional users for the quarter. More details are in §10.2.1.1. Project and allocation activity held strong, with resource requests 3 times what was available; the XRAC recommended support for 1.5 times what was available. More details are in §10.2.1.2. XSEDE resource metrics rebounded in several areas. Total capacity decreased slightly to 16.0 Pflops (peak) with the retirements of the Mason system at Indiana U and the Darter system at NICS. The central accounting system showed 12 compute resources reporting activity, with Jetstream, Bridges, and Bridges-Large entering full production and sending accounting records.

10.2.1.1. User community metrics Figure 2 shows the five-year trend in the XSEDE user community, including open user accounts, total active XSEDE users, active individual accounts, active gateway users, the number of new HPC user accounts, and the total number of new XUP accounts at the end of each quarter. Portal- only user accounts can be used for training course registration and other non-HPC services. The quarter saw 9,442 open accounts but a decrease to 2,810 users charging jobs. (The reason for the decrease is unclear, but fewer users were reported from at least seven different resources.) The number of active gateway users reported dropped to 3,310, but continued to surpass the number of active traditional users. Figure 3 shows the activity on XSEDE resources according to field of science across program years, including the relative fraction of PIs, open accounts, active users, allocations, and NUs used according to discipline. The figure shows the fields of science that consume ~2% or more of delivered NUs per quarter. PIs and users are counted more than once if they are associated with projects in different fields of science. The quarterly data show that the percentages of PIs and accounts associated with the “other” disciplines represent almost 30% of all PIs, more than 40% of user accounts, and 25% of active users. Collectively the “other” fields of science represented 8% of total quarterly usage.

Table 10-2 and Table 10-3 highlight aspects of the broader impact of XSEDE. The former shows that graduate students, postdoctoral researchers, and undergraduates consistently make up 65% of the XSEDE user base. The latter table shows XSEDE’s reach into targeted institutional communities. Institutions with Campus Champions represent a large portion of usage because this table shows all users at Campus Champion institutions, not just those on the champion’s project. The table also shows XSEDE’s reach into EPSCoR states, the MSI community, and countries outside the U.S. The table reflects increases to MSI community metrics based on a review of MSI status for institutions in the XDCDB that correctly noted the MSI status for 45 additional institutions.

10.2.1.2. Project and allocation metrics Figure 4 shows the five-year trend for requests and awards at XSEDE quarterly allocation meetings. The figure shows a slight decrease in demand for Q3 2016, consistent with slightly fewer requests received, and allocations levels remained roughly flat. NUs requested were 3x greater than NUs available, and XRAC recommendations were 1.5x more than NUs available.

Table 10-4 presents a summary of overall project activity, and Table 10-5 shows projects and activity in key project categories as reflected in allocation board type. Note that Science Gateways may appear under any board. In Q3 2016, the number of open and active projects (those making use of resources) climbed, surpassing the peaks of two quarters before. As a special class of projects, science gateway activity is detailed in Figure 5, showing continued high levels of usage and users from these projects.

10.2.1.3. Resource and usage metrics SP systems delivered 36.2 billion NUs in Q3 2016, up 14% from the previous quarter, and up 17% from the year-ago quarter. Table 10-6 breaks out the resource activity according to different resource types. Jetstream became the first cloud system to report usage in Q3 2016. Figure 6 shows the total NUs delivered by XSEDE-allocated SP computing systems, as reported to the central accounting system over the past five years.

This is part of the XD Metrics Service (XMS) (previously NSF Technology Audit Service (TAS)) effort. We are currently working on adapting the data and results structure so most of these results would be available as display via XDMoD in future. 10.3.1. Summary Impact Metrics Table SIM-1 shows the essential scientific summary impact metrics as of the end of Q3 2016. The increasing values for each metric are listed in the table indicating the changes during the last quarter. By calculating such metrics periodically, we can show the trends, as depicted in Figure SIM-2 and Figure SIM-3. Both show steadily increasing trends. Table SIM-1: Overall Scientific Impact Metrics Data

Number of i10-index (Number of externally verified Overall publications cited at h-index g-index unique citation count* least 10 times) publications*

Since 2005 9,505 3,805 181,148 148 258 (TG+XD) Since 2011 7,320 2,216 80,368 85 144 (XD) Change from +843 +324 +14,162 +7 +5 last quarter (TG+XD) Change from +765 +268 +10,753 +4 +9 last quarter (XD) * Data updated as of September 30th, 2016.

10.3.2. Historical Trend Figure SIM-2 and Figure SIM-3 show the increasing monthly trend regarding publications, citations, and other impact metrics such as H-Index and G-Index. Both suggest the increasing impact of XSEDE during the past year, based on verified unique publication count; citation count; h-index and g-index. Note that either h-index or g-index is hard to increase significantly from a

PY6 IPR 1 Page 83 value that was already very high, due to the intrinsic definition and calculation method, but we still observe improvements.

Figure SIM-2. Counts of all externally verified publications for TG/XD (since 2005) and XD (since 2011) and of those being cited at least 10 times (i10-index). Note the hike in the beginning of each quarter (October, January, April, July) due to the publication submission for the quarterly XRAC meeting review.

Figure SIM-3. Accumulated citation count (line, left axis) as well as h-index and g-index metrics (bar, right axis) for TG/XD (since 2005) and XD (since 2011).

10.3.3. Publications Listing Figure 4 shows the number of publications, conference papers, and presentations reported by XSEDE users each quarter, including the 923 reported by 204 projects in PY5 Q3; Appendix D lists these publications according to allocated project. Starting with PY4 Q2 (2014 Q4), we began transitioning to counting articles submitted to XSEDE’s publications database, augmented by manual extraction from files submitted to XRAS. The transition reduced the number of publication due to more focused data entry by users (i.e., fewer non-scholarly articles, invited talks/seminars, and so on), fewer duplicate entries, and a generally cleaner data set.

10.3.3.2. Publications from XSEDE Users Most of the following publications were gathered from Research submissions to the August 2016 XSEDE Resource Allocations Committee (XRAC) meeting. We are continuing to transition from having XRAC renewal submissions provide a file specifically to identify publications resulting from the work conducted in the prior year to requiring submissions to add publications to their

PY6 IPR 1 Page 85 user profiles in the XSEDE User Portal during the proposal submission via XRAS. The publications are organized by the proposal with which they were associated. This quarter, 212 projects identified 1,363 publications and other products that were published, in press, accepted, submitted, or in preparation. In PY4 of the XSEDE program, we began transitioning to counting articles submitted to XSEDE’s publications database, augmented by manual extraction from files submitted to XRAS. The transition reduced the number of publication due to more focused data entry by users (i.e., fewer non-scholarly articles, invited talks/seminars, and so on), fewer duplicate entries, and a generally cleaner data set. This quarter fewer than 25% of XRAC submissions included separate files; all other projects added directly to the database. Also note that the final set of publications are associated with “XSEDE Allocation Request” and not a specific project; we will be working to encourage users to associate such publications with the proper XSEDE project. 1.

PY6 IPR 1 Page 161 11. Service Provider Forum Report Service Providers (SPs) are independently funded projects or organizations that provide cyberinfrastructure (CI) services to the science and engineering community. In the US academic community, there is a rich diversity of Service Providers, spanning centers that are funded by NSF to operate large-scale resources for the national research community to universities that provide resources and services to their local researchers. The Service Provider Forum is intended to facilitate this ecosystem of Service Providers, thereby advancing the science and engineering researchers that rely on these cyberinfrastructure services. The Service Provider Forum (SPF) has two primary elements of its charter: ● An open forum for discussion of topics of interest to the SP community. ● A formal communication channel between the SPF members and the XSEDE project. This report is a quarterly summary of the SP Forum’s activities only. Service Providers that are required to submit quarterly reports do so directly to NSF, based on guidance from their NSF Program Officer. The SPF conducts its business primarily through regular biweekly conference calls on Thursdays at 4PM Eastern Time. Agendas are distributed in advance of the meetings and minutes are maintained on the XSEDE SP wiki5. NSF Program Officers are invited and often participate. Many people from the XSEDE program routinely participate in the SP Forum meetings to facilitate direct interaction with the XSEDE program, including John Towns (XSEDE PI), Victor Hazlewood (XSEDE SP Coordinator), and Ken Hackworth (XSEDE Allocations Coordinator). Additional contributors from XSEDE, XD-TAS and other organizations are frequently invited to lead or support specific agenda topics. In addition to the teleconference meetings, the SPF also convened an in-person session at the XSEDE-16 conference in Miami in July. Below is a summary of the SP Forum’s main activities in this reporting quarter. Technical and XSEDE specific discussions Calls this last quarter were dominated by discussions of the new structure of XSEDE-2, as many of the L2 and L3 managers gave presentations on their areas of responsibility and gathered feedback, including CEE, XCI, ECSS, and XRAS. Discussions were held about extending the XSEDE sign on hub for use be level 3 providers, about the creation of a shared virtual machine repository for use between the Jetstream and Bridges resources, the use of Speedpage for network testing, and around the evolving definition of service units and how this might be reflected in allocation policies. New Federation members The SPF continued to grow – The University of Houston applied to join as a Level 3 member, Bridges was accepted as a Level 1 member, and NICS (whose L1 membership had expired) re- joined as a Level 3 member.

PY6 IPR 1 Page 164 12. TAS Summary 12.1. Executive Summary Since the introduction of job level performance data into Open XDMoD in the 4th quarter of 2015, we have continued to see an increase in its adoption by academic and industrial HPC centers worldwide – providing strong evidence of the desire of HPC support personnel for a tool to measure the efficiency of end user jobs, with a goal of improving their performance. Accordingly, during the current reporting period, a great deal of work by the XMS team focused on improving the functionality and ease of use of a key feature of XDMoD and Open XDMoD, the Job Viewer. In addition, owing to the general difficulty in tracking memory usage, high water memory metrics were added to improve the ability to profile memory usage. Progress was made on the project to incorporate Ganglia job level performance data into Open XDMoD instances, which represents the 3rd monitoring framework that is compatible with Open XDMoD (performance coPilot and TACC_stats being the other two). In terms of XSEDE, two key improvements were made in the data sources that are used to populate data into XDMoD for subsequent analysis. First, the Resource Allocation realm now draws its data directly from XRAS ensuring that the most recent and accurate data is available to XDMoD users. Secondly, XDMoD now obtains its information about XSEDE resources from the new RDR API ensuring that each XSEDE HPC resource is more accurately defined in terms of its configuration. Finally, progress was made on the further development of scientific impact metrics for XSEDE. Progress was also made on two programs that are intimately tied to the XMS program. These programs share personnel resources with XMS and ultimately will contribute significantly to the capability of Open XDMoD, namely the XDMoD Value Analytics EAGER award and the Blue Waters Workload Analysis EAGER award. For the XDMoD Value Analytics program, a new Value Analytics realm was added as a “Grants realm”, which is the first step in adding the ability for Open XDMoD to report return on investment (ROI) metrics that are based on external grant funding by the researchers utilizing a given HPC resource. The Blue Water’s workload analysis is progressing and when completed, as a side benefit, Blue Water’s Open XDMoD production instance will have the ability to directly measure job level performance for all jobs running on Blue Waters. 12.2. XMS Findings: 1. XDMoD Release 6.0 contains several improvements and new features including: improvements to the Job Viewer and adding high water memory metrics to the job level performance data to better profile memory usage. In addition, two key improvements were made in the data sources which will improve the reliability and uniformity of the XDMoD information. First, the Resource Allocations realm now draws its data directly from the newly modified XRAS. Second, XDMoD utilizes the new RDR JSON API as its source for resource infrastructure. 2. Open XDMoD is widely used nationally and internationally at academic and industrial HPC centers, including governmental agencies such as NIH, the U.S. Center for Disease Control and Prevention, and most recently the Department of Defense 3. Since the release of Open XDMoD 5.5 (December 18th 2015), which included the ability

PY6 IPR 1 Page 165 for users and system support personnel to measure job level performance there have been 1940 downloads and 47 known installs of Open XDMoD version 5.5 or higher as of September 30, 2016.

12.3. XMS Recommendations: 1. XSEDE and the XD Net Service Providers should leverage CCR’s on-going work on the development of metrics for cloud instances for the development of cloud metrics appropriate for XSEDE. This work also will be applicable to Open XDMoD users running cloud or mixed cloud and HPC facilities. 2. XMS should work with TACC to design and collect appropriate metrics and analytics for TACC Wrangler, which currently does not correctly report usage. 3. With the incorporation of SUPReMM job level performance data into XDMoD and Open XDMoD and the collection of job level performance data by the largest XSEDE compute facilities, details on CPU usage, memory usage, network activity and I/O usage are now readily available. It is recommended that XSEDE’s ECSS team, with training from XMS, leverage the job level performance data that is available through the Job Viewer tab in XDMoD to work with end-users to improve their application’s operational performance. 4. Conspicuously missing from the XDMoD data is information regarding data storage by the end-users. Accordingly, it is recommended that the XSEDE service providers work with XMS to implement storage tracking utilities.
